- Abstract
- In Brazil there is a direct relation between poverty and labor because the major part of income Brazilian families is from work. Last decades agribusiness has been appropriating of places and it has been changing the work relation in some aspects as technical, gender and spacious. To understand this phenomenon, we researched the job created by agribusiness segment to identify the place of female job. This article verified if agribusiness has contributed to reduce or increase the poverty production. Case study in Cruz Alta-RS showed that job created by agribusiness is male, formal, precarious and temporary. Key words: poverty production, agribusiness, gender inequality. Classificação JEL: J16
