Diversificação dos sistemas produtivos familiares: reflexões sobre as relações sociedade-natureza na Amazônia Oriental
(2011-12) OLIVEIRA, Myriam Cyntia Cesar de; ALMEIDA, Jalcione; SILVA, Luis Mauro Santos
This article weaves some reflections on the relations society-nature in the Amazon region from the changes for the diversification that is taking place in the south-east from Pará. Leaving from a glance on the ways of the agriculture, it was tried to situate like the types of relations with nature they infl uenced the forms of exploration adopted in the region and what these changes mean in terms of the relations between farmers and the natural environment. The text discusses the principal elements and motivations that are in the constitution of this process of diversification, establishing a relation of the same thing with the capacity of adaptation and with the change of projects of the farmers in the sense of the permanence. In this sense, it seems to this change to illustrate the existence of the same process of relative stabilization of the farmers, already identified in other frontiers.

Do avortado ao comprado: práticas alimentares e a segurança alimentar da comunidade quilombola do baixo Acaraqui, Abaetetuba, Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-04) NASCIMENTO, Elcio Costa do; GUERRA, Gutemberg Armando Diniz
This research presents the analysis of different strategies of Food and Nutritional Security (SAN) developed by the families of the Quilombola Community of baixo Acaraqui, Abaetetuba, Pará. The community is facing changes in their eating habits due the reduction of natural resources (hunting animals, fish and shrimps), decrease of the area for agricultural production and increase of the commercial value of production. Using a qualitative approach and the following procedures: participant observation, semi-structured interviews, photographic record, itemized lists and workshops on eating habits, we investigated the community and their production and food practices. We observed a higher specialization of production, decreasing the diversity of local production and of the families’ self-sufficiency; increasing in the importance of extraction of açaí as an income generator; substitution of natural products (natural juices, teas) for industrial products (coffee, soda); increase in purchasing power, stimulated both by market trades and the social benefits received (bolsa família, pension and seguro defeso). This reality has significantly influenced the production practices and eating habits of the local families, interfering with production decisions and food acquisition, making families dependent on trade and income generation in order to ensure the SAN of the quilombola families.

Trabalho familiar ou assalariamento? Dilema de jovens em comunidades rurais
(2013-06) ALVES, Ketiane dos Santos; MOTA, Dalva Maria da
The objective of this work was to analyze working strategies used by young people in the agricultural production with strong natural limitations in northeastern Pará. A case study was carried out in 2010 in the community of Nossa Senhora de Lourdes, in the municipality of Mãe do Rio. The main results show that the slash-and-burn based model of natural exploitation in areas of 25ha has caused great problems associated with the depletion of natural resources. Thus, the work strategies, especially among the young people are being rearranged. They now seek wage-earning activities as an alternative to obtain incomes faster and to develop their autonomy projects. This new reality has promoted changes in manpower demand and hiring in their units of origin and an overload of work for the people who remain in the family work.
