  • Descrição: The objectives were to analyze the dynamics of migration of sugarcane cutters to the State of São Paulo; to compare the socioeconomic profile of non-specialized workers of sugarcane with the profile of the specialized ones, and to analyze the impact of environmental legislation on wages of non-specialized employees. We found that migrant cane cutters’ income is very important for their region of origin; there are no job opportunities there, and most of the interviewed agree that the impact of the harvesting mechanization on the city will be negative. The lack of employment in the region was the main reason to explain the migration to Sao Paolo state. It seems clearly the importance of local public policies to improve schooling and to create job opportunities there. The Differences in Differences fitted equation indicated that the environmental law impacted the wages of unspecialized workers in the state of São Paulo
