Inequalities in the spatial concentration of agricultural crops among the micro- and mesoregions of Minas Gerais, Brazil

EnglishThe present research aimed to map and estimate the spatial autocorrelation of agricultural crops of coffee, corn, soybeans, sugarcane and beans in the state of Minas Gerais and analyzed in the period from 2011 to 2015. The planted area data were obtained of the Systematic Survey of Agricultural Production - IBGE. The Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis model was used to calculate spatial autocorrelation using the Global and Local Moran Index. Significant spatial self-correction was reported in all studied cultures (P-value portuguesO presente trabalho tem por objetivo mapear e estimar a autocorrelacao espacial das culturas agricolas de cafe, milho, soja, cana-de-acucar e feijao no estado de Minas Gerais e analisadas no periodo de 2011 a 2015.
