Land is a natural recourse and it was not created by human labor. It does not configure while a merchandise produced by man. However in the capitalist mode of production, the private ownership of land makes this benefit natural in a special merchandise. The configuration of the land as a store of value before the magnitude of existing lands in Brazil expresses a contradiction because on the one hand, there is a country with continental extensions that are arable; on the other hand, there are many workers struggling to have access to them. The concentration of the Brazilian agrarian structure has historical roots, which intensify from the appreciation of agribusiness as the main axis of development for the field. So grows the demand of the workers and social movements for access and occupancy of land-labor. In Sergipe, these strikings are observed in the occupation and lands use of Union domain areas of the highways as an alternative occupation / survival of sugarcane cutters, unemployed, walking, rural day laborer, and retirees, specifically in the margin of BR 235 of that State. The spatial area of this research is composed by the municipalities of Areia Branca, Itabaiana, Frei Paulo and Carira, because they are the points where it occurs most intensely agricultural activity roadside. The analysis of the contradictions of this process held on theoretical readings and practices about the labor world, the peasantry, land concentration, and the growing production of poverty in Brazilian field. It is in this strikings from this process which seeks to understand how land concentration in the state of Sergipe is placed and what is its relationship to the occupation of Union domain areas, particularly the BR 235, which connects Aracaju to the countryside of the state. Workers produce food, graze animals and collect grass in the Union domain lands next to large farms producing of sugarcane and corn and other private properties. The highway margins in question, which are apparently superfluous, reflect in this geographic space heterogeneity of workers who, between the fences of private homes and roads, work showing the importance that the land has as a means of production / survival.
