RESUMO
This work shows and analyses the fruit culture in Louveira (SP), checking if there was a real involution of the area dedicated to the fruit culture. A survey was made of several laws and documents concerning the urban development; many government and non-government agents were interviewed. An evaluation of the fruit cultivated area was effected, comparing orthophotographic mosaics made in the years of 2000 and 2005.Analyses were concluded observing the following types of land use: caki, peach, grapes and other fruit cultures, as well as urban development, bush areas, dirty fields and water ponds. acerola, plum, caki, guava, orange, lichee, macadamia, mango, passion fruit, ponkan tangerines and grapes were object of observation.
