Using the Framework for Evaluation Systems Natural Resources Management Incorporating Sustainability Indicators (MESMIS), a tool used to evaluate the sustainability in family agroecosystems based on the assumptions of systemic approach, this article aims to understand how family agroecosystems adapts to socioeconomic and environmental changes in the Municipality of Curralinho, Marajó, Pará. The locality presents changes in the relations of land tenure; increase in the valuation of non-timber forest products, specially the acai; larger amounts of financial resources for agricultural activities; and technological training courses with a perspective of the insertion of the agroextractivist into the formal market. With theoretical contribution, The MESMIS has been adapted to the local context. Thereby, were constructed ten indicators for sustainability evaluation of 19 family agroecosystems intentionally chosen considering access to policies of land tenure, such as agricultural credit; social compensation; participation in technological capabilities, as well as the author's knowledge about the reality of Boa Esperança community, locus of this research. In agreement with other studies in the Amazon the MESMIS presented different levels of sustainability in family agroecosystems. After a characterization of the family agroecosystems, it was possible to identify two distinct family logics linked to the production of acai: (i) a agroextractivist logic that maintains as a strong element the extraction, more dependent of natural resources and therefore presenting greater co-production, (ii) another agroextractivist logic with greater market integration, with more intensification of technical-productive elements. The different logics may be the reflection of the adaptation of the family agroecosystems to the current socioeconomic context and environment of the region. The logics of the extractive family production go through profound changes.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013) SILVA, Michel Cleyton do Carmo; HERRERA, José Antônio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3490178082968263; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7285459738695923; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1311-1271
The Organic agriculture has been stimulated by the social movements of the region in which it operates this study, as an alternative able to corroborate the consolidation strategies more sustainable agroecosystems. Understanding organic agriculture as a production system based on relations more harmonized with the environment and provides greater equity and profitability, it was proposed to analyze the folding of organic production in the sustainability of familiar agroecosystems in the municipality of Medicilândia, state of Pará. We had as central hypothesis that organic production provides positive repercussions on the sustainability of the agroecosystems. Therefore, it was decided by methodological arrangement with qualitative procedures such as field observation and interviews with producers members COPOAM - Cooperative of Organic Farmers of the Amazon and quantitative procedures, mostly with the adjustment tool MESMIS (Framework for Evaluation of Systems of Natural Resource Management incorporating sustainabilities indicators) to the reality of family farmers of Medicilândia. With the sustainability evaluation of agroecosystems was established that there is the folding of organic production in the agroecosystems studied, incurring changes in production dynamics well as the way of life of families.

Agrobiodiversidade e conhecimentos locais das plantas alimentícias no quilombo de Deus Ajude, Arquipélago do Marajó – Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-09-08) BEZERRA, Sueyla Malcher; SABLAYROLLES, Maria das Graças Pires; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0250972497887101; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7285459738695923
In this study, we seek to analyze the traditional knowledge and practices associated with agrobiodiversity of food plants, as well as the constitution of sovereignty and food autonomy in the production of two non Quilombo of Deus Ajude, Salvaterra, Pará state, Brazil. For the development of the research, we used a qualitative and quantitative approach. Regarding the methodological procedure, we opted for the case study, participant observation, non-directive identification, questionnaires, free lists, collection and identification of botanical material. Data analysis was carried out by systematizing information collected and by the vertical and horizontal analysis of interviews, data triangulation and Cognitive Salience Index. Results showed that the traditional knowledge of the Quilombola community regarding plant foods is constituted through their daily relationship between the community and nature, as well as through the continuous exchange of knowledge between different generations. Amazonian seasonality has revealed itself as a regulator of the plurality of productive activities throughout the year, and these are carried out through a symbiotic relationship, where both nature and the Quilombo are sustained. In addition, the representative foods of the Marajoara Quilombo, such as beiju, cação, tiborna, cunhapira and crueira, become one of the ways of maintaining the Quilombo's agrobiodiversity. On the other hand, the limitations of access to the territory of common use, the impositions of the farmes around the Quilombo, and the influences of capitalist market that promote changes in the way food is obtained and on the eating habits of quilombolas are evident. Therefore, the valorization of Quilombola culture and its way of life becomes an ally for the preservation of traditional knowledge and practices, as well as the managed of agrobiodiversity.

Diversificação produtiva em agroecossistemas familiares nos municípios de Santa Maria das Barreiras e Conceição do Araguaia, Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012) NOGUEIRA, Ana Caroline Neris; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7285459738695923; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1311-1271
This study aimed to evaluate the process of diversification of agroecosystems located in the southern portion of Pará, departed from the sample that participated in the projects that the CPT performed in order to guarantee the food sovereignty of the settler families by offering diversified products and conservation environmental awareness courses with the use of fire as a management and the effect of specialization in cattle raising and training courses on the implementation of productive activities. These initiatives have started a phase where the context for the establishment of diversification was unfavorable, that due to lack of public policies, low investment capacity of farmers and cattle farming on the forest. At this stage, there have been farmers who chose to diversify, some have managed to maintain diversification, but others did not carry on activities. Subsequently, the second phase of the historical region that began late in the 1990s, enabled a larger opening investment of the federal government, through public policies that started to incorporate the family farm, PRONAF (founded in 1996) was a good example. Even in this more favorable context was not possible for many families opt for diversification and not that they were able to maintain their productive activities.To understand the factors that led to withdrawal or that favored the installation of diverse projects is necessary to go beyond the aspects extra lot to understand the peculiarities of each situation, as well as projects of the family are crucial to understanding this process. The assessment of sustainability wide agroecosystems was ensured by the use of the tool MESMIS, the indicators raised in the environmental, social and economical solution showed a high diversity of realities, the best performance among the agroecosystems of the two phases, is in the 1st phase of history the region and the worst performances in the 2nd phase of dynamic change in production, it strengthens the internal aspects of agroecosystems, their limitations and strengths are crucial to the success or failure of diversification. The size was a more fragile environment, some families do not have the native area, or the entry by fire or livestock feed. In the social dimension, the labor was the most significant indicator, as in the technical-economic indicators most significant were the efficiency of management (limitation, income, productive diversity) and the current diversity of agroecosystems.

A feira e o campo: impactos da experiência da UFPA em lógicas familiares de produção
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-12-16) GUALDEZ, Jean Michel da Silva; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7285459738695923
This dissertation had as general objective to analyze the process of consolidation of the Feira da Agricultura Familiar of UFPA-Belém and impacts on the logics of production of the families that participate in it. In addition to this focus, reflections are presented on the process of building new markets adapted to the reality of family farming, inserted in the dynamics of the Short Circuits of Commercialization (CCC). The research focuses on a qualitative approach, with procedures focused on case studies. Data collection took place through interviews, with the help of scripts, carried out with ten families in the fair environment and in family establishments in different territories of the state. In general, the results show that the fair was instituted based on the demand of family farmers who do not participate in public calls for institutional purchases and the process of inclusion in the project occurs in a disorderly way. The families come from fourteen municipalities in the Northeast of Pará and the metropolitan region of Belém, and are mostly represented by women who play an important role in the fair. Inserted in different social organizations, families create bonds, establish partnerships with the university and capture benefits for the development of activities in the field. The UFPA fair is interpreted by some families as a commercial opportunity, creation of institutional links, exchange of knowledge and knowledge between participants, as well as an environment to give visibility to food and agroecological products. From the characterization of agroecosystems, it was found that the UFPA fair has had an impact on family production logics in different ways, em alguns casos ocorre o processo de ampliação e diversificação dos arranjos produtivos impulsionados pela intensificação das vendas e a demanda por novos produtos, em outros a feira causou um efeito de baixo impacto na lógica socioprodutiva das famílias.

Processos de modificação e a sustentabilidade de agroecossistemas familiares em comunidade de várzea do Município de Cametá - PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012) RESQUE, Antonio Gabriel Lima; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7285459738695923; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1311-1271
This research identified and evaluated the processes of change in Family agroecosystems located in the Baixo Tocantins territory’s township of Cameta, PA, from the influence of external interventions (local development initiatives and rural credit), emphasizing the system diversity as a point that promotes the multidimensional sustainability of these agroecosystems. The methodology used was based on the Indicator-based Framework for Evaluation of Natural Resource Management Systems (MESMIS). The research was carried out in várzea areas of Cametá Township, on the first semester of 2012. The geographic and empiric locus was the Caripi community. Using a table containing 11 indicators of sustainability (1 simple and 10 composed) adjusted to the local reality including the environmental, social and technical-economical dimensions, 11 agroecosystems were evaluated. The data gathering tools used were questionnaire(s), semi-structured guide(s), field notebooks and participant observation. The field research involved the participation of the local actors in the data gathering steps. The field results showed, among the list of indicators proposed, some of them that were most important to the reality of Baixo Tocantins were: environmental, maintenance of natural diversity (ADN) and conservation of fish resource (ARP); social, quality of life (SQV) and social organization (SORG); and technical-economical, performance of family economy (TECON), possibility of diversification (TEDIVERS) and efficiency of management (TEFIC). The sustainability of the agroecosystems evaluated was considered satisfactory, in the way that just one agroecosystems showed result(s) lower than the critical level (5,0). Differences were observed between the performances of the agroecosystems with a higher level of external intervention to the ones with lower level of external intervention. However, those results were not totally assigned to this kind of intervention, but also to others variables. These interventions can incline either the valorization and maintenance of natural diversity, or the productive specialization. Among the considered dimensions, the best results were attributed to the environmental and technical-economical dimensions rather than the major variability between the agroecosystems. The social dimension received the lower results, showing major uniformity between the agroecosystems. The MESMIS framework, despite showing some inconsistencies, has proved capable to be used in the region.
