Marituba is a municipality located in the Metropolitan Region of Belém, State of Pará. From 2006 to 2017 years, an agricultural census was carried out, during this period 11 years there has been a decline of 65% of family production units. That reduction is associated with numerous factors such as: the aging of farmers, lack of interest from younger people, lack of public policies and of technical assistance and rural extension. In addition to these aspects, there was an increase population in the municipality. The agriculture that is developed in the municipality supplies the markets of the capital of Pará and is characterized as small lots – sites or agroforestry backyards – in which farmers develop a variety of crops within urban areas. Almir Gabriel is a neighborhood that used to be a farm and went through an occupation process, during the demarcation of the place agricultural production plots and areas intended for housing were divided.

In Brazil, the urbanization process moves quickly with an immense diversity of realities. Without any planning, the cities did not have the capacity (or were not prepared) to accommodate the demand of its growing population for education, health, housing, sanitation and opportunity of occupation and income generation. Identified as a multifunctional tool with potential to feed the needs of part of this marginalized population, the contemporary periurban agriculture gained space in Brazil and internationally. In this context, the present dissertation has as its main objective to demonstrate that periurban agriculture practiced specifically in the Curuçambá area, in Ananindeua, part of Belém’s greater area, is an activity capable of contributing to the local development as it interferes positively on various aspects, such as the economic, social, ambient, health and, consecutively, including the families involved and, although the results are still not very significant, can become a strong alternative as long as the difficulties identified are solved. The present study is based on the rural and urban phenomenons of periurban agriculture, does a research to register the current situation and, through the application of a questionnaire, obtains information from the families involved, as well as through interviews with local institutions. The information was complemented with data from companies such as EMATER, IBGE and SEDES.The results show that there are no laws or public policies devoted to periurban agriculture research, and the understanding of the local government about the subject is limited. A lack of sanitation, water supply and water treatment were identified, not to mention the terrible infrastructure conditions, such as the lack of necessary transportation for the production of agricultural products. The periurban agriculture activities are present in the city’s dynamic and exist thanks to the initiative of some of its individuals, for whom agriculture is a primary source of income. The study highlights the importance this kind of agriculture has for the families involved and its potential, considering its multifunctionality, to contribute to sustainable local development, both in the social aspect and alimentation, continuously improving life quality of people living in the city.
