We analyzed the interdependency between forest land conversion and economic land use in Brazilian Legal Amazon (BLA) from 2006 to 2017. More specifically, we assessed incremental economic gains from forest conversion in the perspective of environmental efficiency, and we analyzed the causes and implications of the interdependence based on a Forest Transition framework. Results suggested that despite land conversion being the least profitable production factor, the intensification of deforestation is expected in the future, especially at inner BLA. Specific geographic regions in BLA are significantly heterogeneous and associated with different phases of forest transition across the analyzed period.

我们分析了 2006 年至 2017 年巴西合法亚马逊 (BLA) 林地转化与经济用地利用之间的相互依存关系。更具体地说，我们从环境效率的角度评估了森林转化带来的增量经济收益，并分析了林地转化的原因和影响。基于森林转型框架的相互依赖。结果表明，尽管土地转化是利润最​​低的生产要素，但预计未来森林砍伐会加剧，尤其是在 BLA 内部。BLA 中的特定地理区域具有显着的异质性，并且与整个分析期间森林过渡的不同阶段相关。
