Etnoconhecimento do manejo de açaizais: a elaboração de material didático para contribuir com o diálogo de saberes entre ribeirinhos e assistência técnica nas Ilhas de Abaetetuba – PA

Abstract

Didactic material on the management of açaí groves (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) Produced, such as booklets and books; it usually contains illustrations associated with agronomic technical terms. The present product brings the systematization of the knowledge that surrounds the management of native açaí groves and the linguistic variations in the colloquial language used in the Abaetetuba Islands to contribute to the dialogue between technical assistance agents and the riverside residents. The material is composed of an agroecological sheet on the “Management of native açaizal in the islands of Abaetetuba - PA”, the book “Glossary of regional expressions related to the management of açaizais used by riverside dwellers in the islands of Abaetetuba - PA” and the exhibition “Artifacts of the local culture that permeate the extraction of açaí in Abaetetuba - PA ”. The agroecological form provides technical information on the management of açaí groves carried out by riverine people in simple and accessible language. The glossary lists, in alphabetical order, linguistic variations in the colloquial language used by riverine people, related to the management of açaizal, with the definition of these terms. The exhibition complemented the glossary by presenting parts of plants necessary for making the artifacts used from collection to the extraction of açaí, demonstrating the biocultural importance of different species for riverside dwellers.
