Resumo: Abstract This paper analyses the spatial distribution of the bovine herd in the Brazilian micro-regions between 1995 and 2016, especially in the Legal Amazon. From a spatial analysis with panel data, the growth rate showed to be between 5.6% to 15.68% higher in the Legal Amazon, while the increase in bovine density (herd per km²) was higher in 11.11% to 21.47%, indicating a possible intensification of production in the region. In addition, there was a regional deconcentration of Brazilian livestock, especially due to positive spatial externalities that helped the spread of the herd. Credit for livestock also proved to be important to explain this growth by generating forces of attraction and propulsion for production. Specifically, the productivity of the inputs used in bovine nutrition (soybeans, corn and sugar cane) helped the growth of bovine density, but not in the herd, which corroborates its relationship with the intensification of production.

A partir de uma análise espacial com dados em painel, a taxa de crescimento do rebanho se mostrou entre 5,6% a 15,68% mais elevada na Amazônia Legal, enquanto o crescimento da densidade bovina (rebanho por km²) foi superior em 11,11% a 21,47%, indicando uma possível intensificação da produção na região. Além disso, verificou-se uma desconcentração regional da pecuária brasileira, em especial devido à presença de externalidades espaciais positivas que auxiliaram no espraiamento do rebanho. O acesso ao crédito pecuário também se mostrou importante para explicar esse crescimento ao gerar forças de atração e propulsão para a produção. De maneira específica, a produtividade dos insumos utilizados na nutrição bovina (soja, milho e cana-de-açúcar) auxiliou no crescimento da densidade bovina, mas não do rebanho, corroborando sua relação com a intensificação da produção.
