contribu{\'{\i}}ram para a redu{\c{c}}{\~a}o do desmatamento
at{\'e} 2012. Todavia, a partir de 2013 as taxas voltaram a
crescer, estimuladas pelo enfraquecimento da
legisla{\c{c}}{\~a}o ambiental e das a{\c{c}}{\~o}es de
combate ao desmatamento e pela conjuntura econ{\^o}mica
favor{\'a}vel a expans{\~a}o das atividades agropecu{\'a}rias.
Cerca de 20,62 % das florestas originais da ALB foram suprimidas
at{\'e} 2020, sendo que os estados com maior perda florestal

ABSTRACT: The Amazon forest is the most extensive rainforest of
the planet. Its fundamental role in the climate balance and the
intensification of economic activities, which have been degrading
the vegetation cover in the last few decades, show the need for
the conservation of Amazonia. This paper aims to analyze the
deforestation rates in the Brazilian Legal Amazon (BLA) throughout
the historical series of the Program for Deforestation Monitoring
in the Brazilian Legal Amazon (PRODES) and discuss the values of
forest loss accumulated until 2020 in each Federative Unit.
Throughout the PRODES series, the highest deforestation rates were
registered in 1995 and 2004. In the first case, it was measured
after the currency change in Brazil with the Real Plan, while in
the second, as a consequence of the economic recovery of the
country, due to the stabilization of the currency which boosted
the economy, including agribusiness related sectors. The
commodities crisis, the creation of public policies and on-field
operations contributed to reduce deforestation until 2012.
Nevertheless, since 2013 the rates have risen again, stimulated by
the weakening of environmental legislation and the actions to
fight against deforestation and by the favorable economic
situation for expansion of agricultural activities. Around 20,62 %
of the original forests located in BLA were suppressed until 2020,
with the highest levels of forest loss in Par{\'a}, Mato Grosso,
Maranh{\~a}o and Rond{\^o}nia states.",
