Incêndios já custam R$ 14,7 bilhões aos produtores rurais; São Paulo lidera prejuízo
Os incêndios que atingiram o agronegócio brasílio entre junho e agosto deste ano causaram um prejuízo de R$ 14,7 bilhões em 2,8 milhões de hectares de propriedades rurais no país.
As estimativas foram divulgadas nesta quinta-feira, 26, pela Confederação da Cultura e Pecuária do Brasil (CNA). Segundo a entidade, as projeções se baseiam nos danos à produção de bovinos de golpe, cana-de-açúcar e na qualidade do solo.
De conciliação com o levantamento, a pecuária e pastagens foram os setores mais afetados, com perdas de R$ 8,1 bilhões. Em seguida, destacam-se as cercas (R$ 2,8 bilhões), a cana-de-açúcar (R$ 2,7 bilhões) e outras culturas temporárias e permanentes (R$ 1,068 bilhão).
Os estados mais prejudicados foram São Paulo (R$ 2,8 bilhões), Mato Grosso (R$ 2,3 bilhões), Pará (R$ 2 bilhões) e Mato Grosso do Sul (R$ 1,4 bilhão).

RenovAgro será estendido aos produtores rurais
Nesse cenário, o Ministério da Cultura e Pecuária (Planta) anunciou na segunda-feira, 23, que o crédito do RenovAgro, risca de financiamento do governo federalista para a recuperação de áreas degradadas, será estendido a todos os produtores rurais cujas propriedades foram atingidas por queimadas.
De conciliação com o ministro Carlos Fávaro, o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva autorizou o uso dos recursos do Programa de Financiamento de Sistemas de Produção Agropecuária Sustentáveis (RenovAgro) em caráter emergencial. “É o recurso mais conseguível, com menores taxas de juros e prazo largo para pagamento”, afirmou Fávaro.
Embora alguns bancos passem a disponibilizar o crédito a partir de outubro, algumas instituições já estão oferecendo o recurso.
Fávaro destacou, entretanto, que os únicos produtores excluídos do favor serão aqueles que provocaram os incêndios em suas próprias terras. Segundo ele, essas atitudes devem ser punidas com rigor, conforme a lei.
