abstract = "The recent increase of cultivated sugarcane area to produce
ethanol has promoted debates about the impacts on available land
for food production and on biodiversity suppression. The lack of
objective information on this subject has motivated the present
study in which the land use prior to the expansion of sugarcane,
observed from 2005 to 2011 in S{\~a}o Paulo State, was mapped. A
total of 36 Landsat scenes acquired between October 2002 and
September 2003 with at least two dates per scene. Time series of
MODIS images transformed to EVI2 were also used to support the
land use change analysis. The most relevant land use change
classes were: Pasture, Annual Crops, Citrus, Forest and
Reforestation. The area of sugarcane expansion from 2005 to 2011
was mapped by the Canasat project corresponding to almost 2,360
thousand hectares. The results showed that sugarcane expanded on:
1,490,108 ha (63.1%) of pasture land; 774,050 ha (32.1%) of annual
crops; 88,587 ha (3.7%) of citrus; 3,900 ha (0.2%) of forested
land; and 3,304 (0.1%) of reforestation. These figures indicate
that the expansion of sugarcane is not causing direct land use
change on forested land but rather on pasture and annual crop
land. The impact of sugarcane expansion on indirect land use
change in the agricultural frontier in Brazil has to be analyzed
with caution since during the same period of this study the lowest
deforestation rate were observed in the Brazilian Legal Amazon in
response to governance and intensification of land use.",
