| ABSTRACT The current demand for food has been met through the exploitation of natural reserves. Brazil has 26% of its extension occupied by agricultural uses, 62% of which are pastures. Degraded pastures have greater land use intensity than well-managed pastures, leading to greater degradation of the environment. Land use classification systems consider that pastures are well managed, a misconception for the Brazilian reality. Based on this approach, it was aimed to develop a methodology for mapping the intensity of land use by pasture via remote sensing. The method of mapping was developed and validated in basins with different soil and climatic characteristics. Three calibrations were performed based on NDVI values to ascertain the influence on the... |
