Rice cultivation often is responsible for landscape change in central and western Rio Grande do Sul State. This article investigates how rice cultivation transformed the landscape in the municipality of Cachoeira do Sul from 1975 to 2015. Data was collected concerning temporal and spatial human action and analyzed using remote sensing and geoprocessing methods. Results are presented showing how rice production interfered directly in land use change and areas with the potential for further expansion were identified. However, agricultural expansion occurred slowly over time so that the local landscape will change gradually in the future.Metrics
