The recent history is presented in a periodic manner, indicating the main phases of the large-scale implantation of this plantation in Goiás: 1975-1990, 1991-2002 and 2003-2019. It can be concluded that this sugar-energy production is mainly focused to supply the domestic market of ethanol, sugar and electricity.
