Abstract

This is a reply to Nakano’s paper “A destruição da renda da terra e da taxa de
lucro na agricultura”, published by this Journal. We provide a commentary to Nakano’s
piece based on three elements: i) the analysis of family farm and its hypotheses, ii) the dichotomy
between the logic of valorization and the logic of capital; iii) on the general idea of
destruction of profit rate and land income.
