      abstract = {This paper analyzes the characteristics and the evolution  of income distribution in the Brazilian agricultural sector  considering two dimensions: the per capita household income  and the income of occupied persons. The main data source is  the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD). The per capita  household income was divided into nine components (for  Brazil and considering only the agricultural households) to  evaluate their contributions to the decrease in inequality.  In the second part, the paper analyzes the characteristics  of occupied persons and the determining factors of their  income, comparing the agricultural and non-agricultural  sectors. The estimated effects were analyzed over the  period 1992-2009, adjusting one earnings equation for each  year. In both cases (per capita household income and  earnings of occupied persons), the agricultural sector  showed markedly different behavior compared to the  non-agricultural sector.},
