Large-scale agriculture, including soy and palm oil production, is responsible for deforestation in Brazil's former Amazon forest. Blaming local farmers is hypocritical as it is driven by wealthy individuals and organizations, supported by Bolsonaro's government. These farmers work for larger corporations, such as Starbucks, which buy their products. This exploitation follows the pattern described by sociologist Emanuel Wallerstein, where poorer countries are used for their resources and remain underdeveloped. This is evident in Brazil's case. So, it has been established that soja plantations, pantry cultivation, cows and animal husbandry are done in the huge lands of Brazil's former Amazon forest. While a lot of the blame is put on local agriculture, this seems highly hypocritical as deforestation ultimately serves other ulterior motives. Indeed, everything happens in the interest of wealthy people and organizations that used to be defended by Bolsonaro's government, which we will get back to later. Therefore, it is very ignorant to blame those small farmers as they work for larger organizations. For instance, a lot of the palm oil and soy that is being produced in Brazil is sold to big companies like Starbucks. The sociologist Emanuel Wallerstein theorized a certain relationship in his scholarship on world systems, whereby less developed countries, when they are brought into the global economy, get stuck in a relationship where richer countries lead and they follow. They are being used for their resources. So, this generally results not only in deforestation and the depletion of their resources, but also in the chronic underdevelopment of these countries, which is pretty obviously the case in Brazil.
