FARIAS, Monique; BELTRAO, Norma; SANTOS, Cleber  and  SILVA, Christian. Potential of the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) in the Control of Deforestation in Settlements in the Municipality of Novo Repartimento (PA). GOT [online]. 2018, n.14, pp.179-199.

Assessing the dynamics of deforestation in 15% of the federal settlements in Pará State for five years, it was detected proportionally more deforestation within the settlements than in the area that circumscribes them. Thus, there is the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) as a contribution to understanding the Frontier expansion and the land-use and land-cover change, offering an electronic document that allows the crossing of deforestation information with the land map, showing the situation of rural properties or possessions and their relation to forest felling. This work aims to analyze the effectiveness of CAR as environmental policy on settlement projects in the city of Novo Repartimento, in order to understand the factors associated with the advance of deforestation and the public policies formulated to contain it.

Keywords : Conservation; Policy; Registry; Regularization.
