  Este trabajo midió el atractivo de los municipios del estado de Minas Gerais (MG) para proyectos en los segmentos de la industria siderúrgica, celulosa y papel, muebles, energía y paneles de madera. Se utilizó un cuestionario para construir un índice de atractividad del sector forestal para cada municipio. Como resultado, se constató que el 40% de los municipios presentaban un atractivo "medio" o superior. Las mesorregiones con mayor potencial de desarrollo forestal fueron la Región Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, el Sudoeste de Minas y la Zona da Mata. Los segmentos siderúrgicos y de celulosa y papel encontraron factores de atracción en el 74,08% y 72,79% de los municipios, respectivamente. Se concluyó que la metodología aplicada mostraba lo cerca que estaba una localidad de reunir las características de las industrias de base forestal. Se espera que fomente futuras investigaciones e influya en la planificación estratégica para la expansión del sector forestal en todo el país.

  Este trabalho mediu a atratividade de municípios do estado de Minas Gerais (MG) para projetos nos segmentos de siderurgia, celulose e papel, móveis, energia e painéis de madeira. Por meio de um questionário, foi construído um índice de atratividade do setor florestal para cada município. Como resultado, verificou-se que 40% dos municípios apresentaram atratividade "média" ou superior. As mesorregiões com maior potencial para o desenvolvimento da silvicultura foram a Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, o Sudoeste de Minas e a Zona da Mata. Os segmentos de siderurgia e celulose e papel encontraram fatores de atratividade em 74,08% e 72,79% dos municípios, respetivamente. Concluiu-se que a metodologia aplicada mostrou o quanto uma localidade estava próxima de atender às características das indústrias de base florestal. Espera-se incentivar futuras pesquisas e influenciar o planejamento estratégico para a expansão do setor florestal no país.
