N2  - To be successful any planning framework for analysing investment opportunities in regions, such as the "Cerrado" of Brasil must emphasise sustainable development. This implies a shift from the tradditional single objective of agricultural expansion to a multiple objective approach incorporating economic, social and environmental factors.
