The term sustainable development appeared in 1980 and was consecrated in 1987 for the Brundtland Commission and comes gaining prominence, certainly for the intensification of the environmental problems, due to intensified industrialization, and the increase of the man intervention in the nature. The objective of this research is to construct and to analyze the Index of Microregional Sustainable Development of agrarian reform nesting; to determine the variations caused by oil income on the sustainability index of economic dimension; and to investigate the relation between the farming income and the total income in the nesting. The Unit of Analysis was the Project of Serra Vermelha Nesting of agrarian reform, Areia Branca/RN, formed for 51 piece of land with an area of 15 hectares each, where their owners were interviewed. In the geographic area of this nesting is located the Canto do Amaro Field of Oil, one of the main assets of oil production in the city of Mossoró. To obtain the data we chose the use of interviews with 18 closed questions. They had been used given collected through spontaneous comment. The results showed an Index of General Sustainable Development, considering the three analyzed dimensions was, of 0,543, that it discloses a level of acceptable sustainability. The three individually analyzed dimensions had presented the following results: The Environmental Dimension presented an index of 0,684, with a level of acceptable sustainability also considered; the Economic Dimension presented level of sustainability in alert, with index 0,276; for the Social Dimension the joined index of 0,668, was characterized as acceptable. The Index of Farming Income (relation between the Farming Income and the Total Income) performed 0,02 disclosing to high dependence of not agriculturists sources and low farming production. The oil income caused no change in the level of sustainability of the economic dimension, remaining on alert, with small variation in the index. Considering the royalties income, the index was 0,276; excluding this income, the index goes to 0,230. The data show a weakness the criterion for distribution of royalties, seen that the current practice is the equal division of the amount collected, however, the oil exploration, that generates this income, is markedly in 13% of the earth portions, where the majority of them, 87% only with the bond. The results confirm the so-called "resource curse" of world literature, for causing a visible discouragement to the farming production investment. Therefore, this loss of ability or incentive to agricultural production and high reliance on external sources of income, characterizes a weakness in the shares of the land reform policy on this specific Analysis Unit. Recommend future research in order to investigate the willingness of owners to participate in actions that promote agricultural production supported the practice of Local Productive Arrangement (LPA)
