The sandy ramata landscapes, which tend to form piles of soil due to soil movements, are also avoided when it comes to locating pastoral settlements.
Large-scale studies of Brazilian agrarian reform suggest that locating smallholder settlements near urban centers rather than in isolated frontier regions can facilitate not only improved environmental performance, but also farmer incomes and standards of living that are higher than the regional average.
