This paper is the result of efforts to identify and understand the trajectory of territorialization of the Landless Rural Workers Movement (MST) in Triângulo Mineiro/Alto Parnaíba, Minas Gerais state, as well as its main challenges and accomplishments in the agrarian reform and rural settlements projects created in the region. The mesoregion is one of the most conflicting regarding the struggle for agrarian reform in the state of Minas Gerais, because it s an area of great public and private investments in agribusiness and strategic location for cereal production, storage and (re) distribution of goods to other regions of Brazil. Concerning the Agrarian Issue and Agrarian Reform, according to data from INCRA and DATALUTA, the region is the third of the state in the largest number off settlements, with a total of 86 projects, created between 1986 and 2012, involving 4.455 families, who face, even after the conquest of lots, great continuing challenges to remain in the land, especially the ones related to the access and effectiveness in the public policies of infrastructure, technical assistance, production and income in the lots. In this context, in the mesoregion, the MST currently coordinates 11 settlements and 11 camps, as part of its historical struggles since 1989, when the process of struggles in the state of Minas Gerais started. The trajectory of the MST in terms of achievements and challenges was understood from the struggle process by Emiliano Zapata Settlement Project (Settlement Project) in Uberlândia - the municipality which occupies the fourth place in the state with the biggest number of settlements created - 15 projects, in which six are coordinated by the MST. The Emiliano Zapata can be the main example to understand the context of the agrarian reform in the region in terms of organization, production, income, meetings and disagreements with the public policies.
