Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) O aumento da demanda do açaí e as alterações sociais, ambientais e econômicas: o caso das várzeas de Abaetetuba, Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017-06-30) TAGORE, Márcia de Pádua Bastos; VASCONCELLOS SOBRINHO, Mário; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7843288526039148; LOPES, Luis Otávio do Canto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1013147545099173The aim of this research was to examine the increase in açaí demand and the changes in the Amazon floodplain areas, trying to understand how production systems, through intensive models of açaizeiros management, have caused social, environmental and economic changes in riverine life, that adopting practices different from those usually used in the extractive process of production of açaí are the result of changes of several orders, with consequent risks for society. The case study was carried out in Abaetetuba, Pará, based on the analysis of information from 56 dispersed families in 24 Agroextractive Settlement Projects (PAE) of the 72 islands that make up the municipality. Among the families financed for the açaí activity with resources from the National Program for Strengthening Family Farming (PRONAF), based on the database of 56 Appointments to Pronaf (DAP), were chosen for analysis. Time between 2003 and 2016. The exploratory visits were made to the properties of 10 riverside inhabitants in the year 2015 and 2016, when the semi-structured open interviews were carried out with the participation of the families, the questionnaires were applied and the field explorations carried out with ethnographic records, Photographic and geographic coordinates. The management of açai trees in the floodplain areas has provided an increase in the production and income of riverside, but has also implied alterations in cultural, social and work relations, as well as in the environment, leading to the process of landscape homogenization, with a reduction in the species diversification, which will cause in the medium and long term, socioenvironmental risks where they are installed threatening the sustainability of the Várzea ecosystem, with consequences in the production and productivity of the açaizeiros.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) A importância do manejo do açaí e o modo de vida varzeiro no município de limoeiro do Ajuru – Pará – Amazônia – Brasil(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-03-19) COSTA, Sonia Pompeu Rodrigues da; BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1372405563294070; LOPES, Luis Otávio do Canto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1013147545099173This paper aims to understand the importance of açaí management and its impacts in relation to the way of life of the wetlands locals in the municipality of Limoeiro do Ajuru, in the Tocantina Region of the state of Pará, aiming to propose guidance and environmental education tools. It aims to investigate the use of açaí in the daily life of the riverine as income generation, food and cultural identity, considering that, despite its full use, its fruits stand out as the most important part used by the population in the economic aspect. To do so, a bibliographic survey was initially conducted, based on Nogueira, Homma, Canto, Lily, Ferrão, Oliveira, Tavares, Figueirêdo, Müller, etc. From this, the methodology was followed with the intention of studying the spatial dynamics of the varzeiros populations. Therefore, the field research used as instruments: observations, photographic records, interviews and semi-structured questionnaires applied to the varzeiros families of the rural zone, focusing on the production, industrialization and commercialization delimiting the theme around the research on the methods and techniques used by the riverside in the cultivation of açaí. The data collection followed the following questions: What are the most significant changes in the varzeiro mode caused by the management of acai in the municipality of Limoeiro do Ajuru; What are the main challenges and opportunities offered by the management of açaí of the floodplains of the municipality. The analysis of the collected data took into consideration the lifestyle bias, which designates the set of actions taken by a particular human group in order to ensure its existence. In other words, it analyzes the concrete condition of the life of a group capable of revealing the essence of its socio- spatial phenomena. Then, a set of reports of riparian-varzeiros was produced, valuing their life stories, related to the time before and after the management of açaí in their localities, thus contributing to the production of scientific knowledge, providing a better understanding about this problem, thus improving the practice of management.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Redes, aprendizados e ativos territoriais na Amazônia: o processo de qualificação do açaí do rio Canaticu, arquipélago do Marajó, Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-01-10) OLIVEIRA, Hermógenes José Sá de; ROCHA, Gilberto de Miranda; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2436176783315749It investigates the process of social construction of territorial assets in the Amazon and how they emerge and reveal territories, shaped by the general characteristics of a post-Fordist economy. Territorial assets are the result of the metamorphosis that originates from generic resources (virtual assets) that pass to (generic) assets through the market. They may or may not become specific or territorial assets, depending on the engagement of the territorial system of actors. An eminently alive and diligent process of formulation and resolution of problems, mostly unpublished, related to production, which allows revealing latent resources and enhancing the territory, characterize this territorial dynamic. The research studied the case of the açaí of the Canaticu River in Curralinho, in the archipelago of Marajó (PA), from its potential resource time to its current phase of generic asset/resource in the process of a specification. It had as a theoretical-conceptual framework the (new) economic sociology and the studies on the specification of territorial assets. This case study research tries to understand the dynamics of the socio-territorial formation of the Canaticu River and its networks of social actors. The choice of method allowed the necessary interpretive focus on the contemporary phenomenon of the qualification of territorial assets within a living social context, without clear limits between the phenomenon and the social context. Moreover, the technically unique research environment, with many more variables of interest than data sources, corroborated the choice of method. Thus, the research relied on various sources of evidence and previous theoretical propositions to conduct data collection and analysis. Field research has identified two processes of territorial activation and interdependent: (a) the dynamics of formation of a network of territorial activation of the Canaticu River, from the constitution embedded in the long history of the network of actors in search of rights; and (b) the activation of açaí, a process of transformation of generic assets into assets of the territory, based on learning and territorial innovations that allow the collective construction of territorial quality.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) O sistema da bioeconomia do açaí no contexto amazônico de Abaetetuba/PA(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-09-03) QUEIROZ, Luiz Fernando Paes de; SOBRINHO, Mário Vasconcellos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7843288526039148; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6489-219X; FLORES, Maria do Socorro Almeida; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8875436559577793; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9154-6938The concept of bioeconomy has undergone continuous transformations since its earliest mentions, expanding in scope and application. To deepen the understanding of its origins and evolution, this research approaches bioeconomy from academic, political-institutional, and Amazonian perspectives. This conceptual basis enabled the identification of the foundational elements of the Amazonian bioeconomy and, more specifically, the structure of the açaí bioeconomy. This product, essential to the diet of riverine populations, has become a global commodity, driving an economic activity that generates employment and income for thousands of families in the region. Pará is the largest açaí producer in Brazil, and the municipality of Abaetetuba, the focus of this study, holds the third-largest production in the state, establishing itself as an important hub of goods and services in the Baixo Tocantins region. However, this activity faces political-institutional, economic, social, technological, and environmental challenges involving traditional communities, government institutions, and business sectors. In this context, the primary objective of this research is to demonstrate how the açaí bioeconomy is structured within the Amazonian context of Abaetetuba/PA, proposing a systemic model with its core elements. Through a literature review, document analysis, and interviews with key actors in the production chain, it was possible to develop an analytical model in diagrams, representing both the Amazon Bioeconomy System and the Açaí Bioeconomy System. These models provide an integrated view of the interactions among their different components, allowing a systemic understanding of the challenges and opportunities involved. As a result, the analysis revealed both strengths and weaknesses of this complex system, indicating that açaí production cannot be understood in isolation or linearly but rather as part of a living system, in which multiple factors mutually influence final outcomes. Furthermore, the research highlighted the importance of public policies that encourage the formalization of the production chain, access to credit, technical assistance, and the implementation of sustainable management practices. Based on the issues identified throughout the research, contributory proposals were developed to improve governance strategies. These proposals are directly aligned with the study's findings, addressing observed demands and gaps while strengthening the articulation among the various actors, processes, and activities involved.
