🏞️ Farmland for sale

Hello! Welcome back to Brazil Agro, brought to you by The Brazilian Report. Every Monday, we’ll go into detail about Brazil’s powerhouse agribusiness sector. This week, we look into how a difficult year for crops has pushed a lot of farmers to sell their land.

A buyer's market in Brazil's agricultural heartland

Brazil’s thriving agribusiness sector is anchored in the country’s central region, where sprawling farmland and livestock operations dominate the landscape. Yet a significant portion of that territory is up for grabs, with some towns seeing nearly half their land listed for sale.

Data by Chaozão, a rural real estate platform, reveals two states with particularly large parcels of land advertised on the site, which hosts listings for more than 6,000 properties.

Mato Grosso, Brazil’s agricultural powerhouse, leads the way with at least 5.6 million hectares — about 6% of its territory — up for sale. Tocantins, a smaller northern state bordering Mato Grosso, has an even greater share of its land on the market: 2.4 million hectares, or nearly 9% of its area.
