Kátia Regina de Abreu (February 2, 1962) is a Brazilian politician, serving as a Senator for Tocantins since 2007.[1] She was previously elected as a congresswoman for Tocantins from 2003 to 2007. After her departure from the Democratic Labour Party in March 2020, Kátia joined the Progressistas.[2]

On December 23, 2014, then President Dilma Rousseff appointed Abreu as Minister of Agriculture, to serve during the president's second term, amidst controversies involving environmentalists, including Greenpeace.[3] Abreu took office on the 1st of January, 2015, during Rousseff's second inauguration.[4] Abreu was replaced by Blairo Maggi, following the impeachment of Dilma[5]

On November 2017, she was expelled from the Brazilian Democratic Movement Party for contributing to the opposition. In 2018, she joined the Democratic Labour Party, supporting Ciro Gomes' presidential campaign.[6]
