Land Use in Brazil
Economic perspective• Efficient use of land / misallocation• Efficient use of land / misallocation
J i t d ti Joint production• Ecosystem services (HVES)A i l l d i (HPA)• Agricultural production (HPA)
Alternative delivery routes for HVES and HPA• Public x private / centralized x decentralized• Ex.: forestry code (private and decentralized), conservation units (public and centralized).

Credit Constraints and Deforestation
Ambiguous relationship: depending on the production model and credit usep g p
extensive model:• credit restriction limits capacity of clearing new areas• lower deforestation
intensive model:• credit restriction limits capacity of intensifying production• creates incentive to push the agricultural frontier or change model
hi h d f i• higher deforestation

Summary
The Resolution 3,545, enacted by the Central Bank in 2008, reduced the availability of subsidized credit in the Brazilianreduced the availability of subsidized credit in the Brazilian Amazon, especially in livestock production.
Effect is stronger for medium and large‐scale contracts.
Changes in deforestation provide evidence of binding credit constraints in the region mainly on livestock productionconstraints in the region, mainly on livestock production.
Reduction in deforestation is compatible with an extensive model of production.
