Paraná, Goiás and Mato Grosso are the states that have expanded the most with agribusiness and job creation

The agribusiness sector, even though it is not a great generator of jobs like the business and service industries, is a sector that moves the municipalities in the interior of the country, in the economy and in the generation of new jobs. The three States that most expanded in the sector were Paraná, Goiás and Mato Grosso.

Fabio Bentes, chief economist at the National Confederation of Trade in Goods, Services and Tourism (CNC), carried out a study among the 100 cities that created the most formal jobs this year until September, 26 are located in three states, with these two states also increased agricultural income in the 2019/2020 harvest.

First, there are 11 cities in Paraná, then Goiás scored with 9 and Mato Grosso with 6 municipalities. It is important to point out that, according to a study by MacroSector Consultores, Paraná is the State with the greatest increase in cereal revenue this year (53,8%), followed by Goiás (36,3%) and Mato Grosso (33,2. two%).

To arrive at this result, Bentes considered the number of official employees in each city through the “Annual List of Social Information” of the Ministry of Economy, and compared this information with micro data from the “General Register of Employment and Unemployment” until September. Those three states accounted for 14% of the country's full-time workers, and that proportion increased to 26% of the top 100 cities with the most jobs this year.

Fábio also shows that there is no capital in the 100 most dynamic cities in the sector's activities, "This reveals that the Brazilian economy, today, depends more than ever on agribusiness to not have an even worse performance".
