Land in Brazil: Farmers versus Amerindians

After Brazil’s constitution was adopted in 1988, five years should have been enough to decide which areas should be declared Amerindian tribal lands. Nearly 25 years later, the country has 557 indigenous1 territories covering 13% of its area, most of them in the Amazon. But more than 100 others are still being considered. The delay2 is causing conflict in long-farmed regions farther south.
In the past month several Terena Indians have been injured3 and one killed in confrontations with police and farmers in Sidrolândia in Mato Grosso do Sul (see map). Funai started studying the region the Terena tribe claims4 as its ancestral home in 1993. In 2001 it proposed an indigenous territory of 17,200 hectares (42,500 acres). Landowners whose farms fell within it challenged the decision in court; some have titles dating from 1928, when the government ceded 2,090 hectares to the tribe and encouraged settlers5 to farm neighbouring land. Since then Funai, the justice ministry, the public prosecutor’s office and various judges have argued over the territory’s status. Last year owners of some of the 33 affected farms won a ruling6 granting7 them continued possession.

The Terena, supported by Funai, continue to lay claim to the land. Last month they invaded several disputed farms. During a failed attempt by police to evict8 them from one owned by a former state politician, an Indian was killed. On June 4th another was shot in the back on a neighbouring property. He is unlikely to walk again. The evictions have now been suspended and the occupations continue. The justice ministry is trying to gather together local and federal politicians and tribal leaders to negotiate an end to the impasse.
Brazil’s powerful farm lobby is now trying to change the constitution to give Congress the final say9 over future demarcations. That would probably mean few or no more indigenous territories. The government wants the power to demarcate territories to remain with the justice minister and the presidency. But in states where Funai’s rulings are fiercely10 contested, such as Mato Grosso do Sul, it plans to start seeking second opinions from agencies seen as friendlier to farmers.
