Coffee plantation in southern Minas Gerais. When the slavery economy went into crisis in the mid- Nineteenth century, landowners and government officials in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro encouraged European immigration to meet labor needs on the prosperous coffee plantations. Over 4 million Portuguese, Italians, Germans, Russians, Poles, and Spaniards entered Brazil from 1870 until 1930, and during the Twentieth century new nationalities like the Japanese and Lebanese immigrated. This immigration drastically changed the ethnic composition of the population which by 1930 had grown to over 30 million people, half of which considered themselves white.Plantação de café no sul de Minas Gerais.
