The objective of the present work is to discuss about the role of public policies in the historic process of income concentration and poverty in the Brazilian rural territory. With basis in information about persons up to 10 years residents in rural areas from the National Research of Domiciles Sample (PNDA) for the period from 1995 to 2005, there was calculated the Gini and Theil (R and L) inequality Index, and the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke (1984) and Datt (1998) poverty Index. The data and results bring the indication of the existence of the relation between the persistent condition of poverty of the rural population and the agrarian and economic policies adopted in the period.

本研究旨在探讨公共政策在巴西农村地区收入集中与贫困的历史进程中所扮演的角色。基于1995年至2005年间全国住户抽样调查（National Research of Domiciles Sample，PNDA）中针对农村地区10岁及以下居民的相关信息，本研究计算了基尼（Gini）、泰尔（R与L）不平等指数，以及Foster-Greer-Thorbecke（1984）与Datt（1998）贫困指数。本研究的数据与结果表明，农村人口持续存在的贫困状况与该时期所推行的农业及经济政策之间存在关联。
