Resumo: Agribusiness is in full development in Brazil, occupying a prominent position in the production and export of agricultural products, and as a result, the country has been in first place in the consumption of pesticides for more than a decade. The model of agriculture practiced in a predatory way has adverse impacts on the environment and on human health, causing soil and water contamination, loss of biodiversity, intoxications, and deaths. Thus, the objective of this article is to discuss the main issues of agribusiness expansion in Brazil and its socio-environmental impacts. On the other hand, agroecology presents itself as a possibility for a paradigm shift in this model of agricultural production. This brief review offers considerations that contextualize the need for integration of economic growth with the promotion of social and environmental development, with regard to Brazilian agribusiness, being the duty of the State to take actions that reconcile these dimensions.

El modelo agrícola practicado de forma predatoria tiene impactos adversos sobre el medio ambiente y la salud humana, provocando contaminación de suelos y aguas, pérdida de biodiversidad, envenenamiento y muerte. Así, el propósito de este artículo es discutir los principales temas de la expansión de la agroindustria en Brasil y sus impactos sociales y ambientales. Por otro lado, la agroecología se presenta como una posibilidad de cambiar el paradigma de este modelo de producción agrícola practicado. Esta breve revisión ofrece consideraciones que contextualizan la necesidad de integrar el crecimiento económico con la promoción del desarrollo social y ambiental, en lo que respecta a la agroindustria brasileña, siendo deber del Estado realizar acciones que concilien estas dimensiones.L'agrobusiness est en plein développement au Brésil, occupant une place prépondérante dans la production et l'exportation de produits agricoles, ce qui implique que le pays occupe, depuis plus d'une décennie, la première place dans la consommation de pesticides. Le modèle agricole pratiqué de manière prédatrice a des impacts négatifs sur l'environnement et la santé humaine, provoquant une contamination des sols et des eaux, une perte de biodiversité, des empoisonnements et des décès. Ainsi, le but de cet article est de discuter des principaux enjeux de l'expansion de l'agrobusiness au Brésil et de ses impacts sociaux et environnementaux. D'autre part, l'agroécologie se présente comme une possibilité de changer le paradigme de ce modèle de production agricole pratiqué. Cette brève revue propose des considérations qui contextualisent la nécessité d'intégrer la croissance économique à la promotion du développement social et environnemental, en ce qui concerne l'agrobusiness brésilien, il est du devoir de l'État de mener des actions qui concilient ces dimensions.O agronegócio se apresenta em pleno desenvolvimento no Brasil, ocupando posição de destaque na produção e exportação de produtos agrícolas, como implicação o país ocupa, há mais de uma década, o primeiro lugar em consumo de agrotóxico. O modelo de agricultura praticado de forma predatória tem impactos adversos sobre o meio ambiente e na saúde humana, ocasionando contaminação do solo e da água, perda da biodiversidade, intoxicações e mortes. Desse modo, o objetivo deste artigo é discutir as principais questões da expansão do agronegócio no Brasil e os seus impactos socioambientais. Por outro lado, a agroecologia se apresenta como possibilidade de mudança de paradigma desse modelo de produção agrícola praticado.
