Abstract
⺠Currency dynamics impact land use and change. ⺠A strong dollar diverts agricultural expansion abroad. ⺠A strong American dollar and the devaluation of several South American currencies resulted in 78,480 km2 of new soy production since 1995. ⺠Monetary policies play an important role in the location and distribution of new agricultural production.
