Figure 5.
Different technological trajectories contribute differently to the agricultural economy of the North region. The share of the T4 trajectory (enterprise – livestock for meat) in the agricultural economy (y-axis; GPV) constitutes approximately 22% of the total, so its weight as a user of environmental assets is about two times its social contribution. At the other extreme, T2 (peasant – agroforestry) contributes to about 22% of the rural economy, about four times its contribution as a CO2 emitter. The T1 trajectory (peasant – intensive agriculture) contributes 30% of the agricultural economy, 1.5 times its participation as a CO2 emitter. In turn, the T7 trajectory (enterprise – annual crops), constituting 9% of the economy, is 1.7 times greater as a CO2 emitter. The T3 trajectory (peasant – livestock for meat) contributes to 17% of the economy, 1.2 times its participation in net CO2 balance. The participation of the T5 trajectory (enterprise – plantation) in the economy, about 5%, is basically the same level as its contribution to CO2 emissions. Source: Table S2 and Table S3.
