ABSTRACT
The City of Campo Verde-MT originated in the 1970s have emerged as urban because of their
role in the agricultural frontier in the state of Mato Grosso, in the form of execution of
government projects for agricultural exploitation. On July 4, 1988 is dismembered in the
municipalities of Dom Aquino and Chapada dos Guimarães in an arbitrary process with
municipalities in its surrounding region remained until 2016, which was tried in the
Legislative Assembly of Mato Grosso. The city grows due to the integrated migration to the
rural environment, where class conflicts occur leading to rural settlements and later the
distribution of land and income housing to attempt to remedy the housing défcit place
affordable to low-income families. But survey results indicated that both in rural settlements
as in lots and popular houses, the capital is present favoring commercial investment and in
particular to agribusiness. However this chain does not distribute income and quality of life, is
founded with technological advances and concentration of land and income for landowners,
representatives of companies, transnational companies and real estate speculators. As to lowincome
families, they are more vulnerable to replacement in the labor market for little or no
qualification and training, leading to his move away from the central city to remote peripheral
regions of the workplace, still complicating more replacement jobs, surviving with crumbs
paid by you that retains capital as ice cream shops, day laborers, plates, gardeners and others
who use migration within and outside the municipality as working solution. Emphasis is
placed on Campo Verde County, a place that belongs to the productive chain, a very serious
problem that has been empowering for having commodities as the main source of income,
which is the increasing use of agrochemicals. These, is polluting the air, soil and water in
increasingly larger scale. All people in the urban and rural environment are at risk. But the
field workers who have direct contact with handling are higher exposure. The government
does little to address the issue, thus, low-income workers and children are the ones who suffer
the consequences. Generally the chronically ill treatments are in distant places, because the
city offers little for this purpose, choking hospitals and clinics for treatment in cities like
Cuiabá and Rondonópolis. Finally, the last chapter is addressed an analysis and reflection on
the production chain as the wealth generated by this economy which, in the case of foreign
interests, could jeopardize all regional and even national development because it is now a
political channel.
