One percent of the largest farms in Latin America account for half of the agricultural land and 80 percent of the farms have only 13 percent of the territory. "Latin America is the most unequal region of the world in the distribution of land," says a recent investigation by the international NGO Oxfam. In Argentina, 1 percent of the largest stays concentrate 36 percent of the land. Follow Peru, where 77 percent of the land is in the hands of 1 percent of stays. They are followed by Chile (74 percent) and Paraguay (71). In Bolivia, 1 percent of the farms manage 66 percent of the land, and in Mexico, 56 percent. In Brazil, 44 percent of the agricultural territory is for 1 percent of the farms. In Argentina, 36 percent is in the hands of that minimum portion of farmers and planting pooles.
