A diversidade de práticas produtivas de famílias agroextrativistas na Amazônia
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-12) FELIZARDO, Alciene Oliveira; ROCHA, Carla Giovana Souza
The present work aims to characterize the productive practices of Amazonian agroextractive families, evidencing the process of insertion of bird breeding provided by participation in a local project. For that, eleven families from the Capim, Caripetuba and Xingu Islands, Abaetetuba municipality in Pará, were interviewed. The study identified that the agroextractive families from the Capim, Caripetuba and Xingu Islands are heterogeneous with regard to the availability of resource bases (social and materials), composition, organization and functioning of the family-establishment system. Agroextractive families were classified into three types a) type I: restricted base of material resources with predominance of external income; type II: material resource base with medium diversity and income centered on the extraction of açaí, fish and shrimp; and, type III: material resource base with high diversity and multiple sources of income. This reveals that the agroextractive families that benefit from the local project develop different practices guided by the particularities of the familyestablishment system that imply permanence or resistance in the face of standardized agricultural development projects.

A feira e o campo: impactos da experiência da UFPA em lógicas familiares de produção

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.
