本文分析了跨马松高速公路沿着小农户的贫困和不平等动态。我们衡量了原定居者和新业主的贫困和不平等的变化，将基于收入的福利指数与多维指数进行了对比。我们的研究结果表明，小农户的贫困和不平等总体上有所减少，尽管新业主的贫困下降更为明显，而原定居者的不平等减少幅度更大。这一趋势表明，家庭的生计和福利最初有所改善，但后来往往达到极限-这是农村地区常见的结构性限制的迹象，也可能是亚马逊地区城市中地方经济繁荣和萧条趋势的复制。此外，我们对福祉的多维度估计显示，小农的一些经济上可行的土地使用策略（例如，可能对区域景观具有重要的生态意义。这些调查结果突出表明了促进农村人口可持续发展的公共政策挑战。
This paper analyses poverty and inequality dynamics among smallholders along the Transamazon High-way. We measure changes in poverty and inequality for original settlers and new owners, contrasting income-based with multidimensional indices of well-being. Our results show an overall reduction in both poverty and inequality among smallholders, although poverty decline was more pronounced among new owners, while inequality reduction was larger among original settlers. This trend suggests that families have an initial improvement in livelihood and well-being which tends to reach a limit later—a sign of structural limitations common to rural areas and maybe a replication of boom and bust trends in local economies among Amazonian municipalities. In addition, our multidimensional estimates of well-being reveal that some economically viable land use strategies of smallholders (e.g., pasture) may have important ecological implications for the regional landscape. These findings highlight the public policy challenges for fostering sustainable development among rural populations.
