(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2010) GUERRA, Gutemberg Armando Diniz; SOUZA, César Augusto Martins de
The rural products originated in the intersections along the Trans-Amazonian Highway are displayed and sold in the Altamira’s Municipal Free Market, Farmers’ Market and the Brasilia Market. The first two are connected and hardly distinguished from one another, located in the commercial center of the city and known as ‘Municipal Market’. They have their peak on Saturday, with a slow movement during the week. The third one, located in the Brasilia neighborhood, stretches along one of the main Altamira streets, the Abel Figueiredo, which offers a variety of products on Sunday mornings. In this article, we describe the markets in their structural characteristics that presuppose the analyses of the social and economic relations there developed.

Revisão crítica sobre a estrutura agrária na região Oeste de Santa Catarina: 1960- 1980
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-12) PINTO, Marcos Rogério; SILVA, Claiton Márcio Da
The present study seeks to analyze the conceptions of the land process in the west of the state of Santa Catarina. Faced with the institutionalized modernization project, there was a characterization of rural spaces and properties, seeking not only to solve the local social tension, but also to make a precondition for its development, establishing a social organization of the State on the frontier lines. The expansion and modernization process focused on the land issue, resulted in an environmental impact, and deepening the deterioration of agriculture in family models, intensifying the conceptions and practices of new crops proposed by a model characterized in a distinct socioeconomic representation in transnational capital. I try to make a critical literary review of the historical elements that make up this process for a fundamental understanding of social and environmental conflicts that extended in the formation of the border of the southern region of western Santa Catarina

The process of urbanization in rural areas grows throughout the world. In the Brazilian Amazon, the occurrence of this expansion process allows for increased economic performance of farms due to land use intensification and diversification of production in peri-urban settlements. The objective of the research was to evaluate the economic performance of farms, pondering the prospects of farmers as to stay in the Settlement Project Cupiúba. We sampled 30% of the settlers, which corresponds to 65 farms to survey data by applying semi-structured questionnaire. The data refer to various aspects of the characteristics of establishments, including family data, economic data, agricultural practices, hand labor, marketing, basic infrastructure and assets acquired. Data analysis was performed by comparing the average ANOVA - single factor analysis and correlation between variables with simple correlations. In the economic and financial aspects were investigated income-generating activities in agriculture and non-agricultural establishment. Based on the results analyzed, it appears that the establishments if enable the agricultural income while the Chiefs are young, and the receipt of retirement when they are in old age. The viability of agriculture is through the sale of plant products. Both intensification as diversification showed no clear effects on income. Establishments have economic viability and the vast majority is above the level of simple reproduction. The income, which allows the purchase of consumer goods, infrastructure and the proximity of the settlement urban center enable the well-being of families and contribute to the farmers remain in the settlement.
