In the vast majority of rural properties, not only in the municipalities concerned in this research, but also throughout the state of Rio Grande do Sul and in the country as a whole, there is a violation in the current Forestry Code, is it not applied for lack of knowledge from the population, neglect, or even through lack of supervision of environmental agencies. Different soil uses in rural properties from the Médio Alto Uruguai region, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, were mapped, and it was found its suitability or not suitability to the forestry code, analyzing the effect of its fulfillment, on land use in small rural properties. The evaluations of this work show the true reality of small-scale agriculture in the region, which are the applications of the code that caused major changes in the properties, and their impacts on the property, thus, a future work based on factors that need to be improved and corrected on each property, for the same being up to date with the current Forestry Code.
