The Agroforestry Systems (SAF) can be used as a means of forest recovery and are interesting due to their diversity of products and the sustainability of the system, mainly in the Northeast of Pará, which has a predominance of secondary forests, popularly called “capoeiras”, areas which can be used for its implementation. The aim of the study was to analyze the relation between Collective Action and SAF in the São Manoel community, in the municipality of Moju, Pará state. The survey data were collected in the years 2018 and 2019, with the main instruments used being historical, open and semi-structured interviews with farmers and main leaders in the community. The data are predominantly qualitative and the procedures to summarize were the transcription of the interviews, with the creation of tables and vertical and horizontal analyzes of the speeches. The community of São Manoel is a small rural village with a history of struggling against large companies to maintain its territory and whose main source of income is native açaí. Land titling is collective and the main issues of resource management are discussed with the Quilombola Association of Farmers of São Manoel, which also has other duties, such as discussing the issue of security, community organization, improving income sources, in addition to legal representation in different instances. The results shows that the SAF arrived in the community in 2015, taken by one of the farmers (who has agricultural training), and had great repercussions after the community verify the success of the system in São Manoel. The working group who has the SAF is composed of 15 people, who work from the plants nursery to the implantation of areas through the collective effort. They have a differentiated system of implantation of SAF, when carrying out the management of capoeira in order to use it as an input for plant nutrition. Three different types were found among the SAF of São Manoel, varying in the number of species in the system, being cupuaçu, cocoa, açaí and banana the main species implanted. The data show that the SAF had a good acceptance among farmers because the system was brought by one of the members of the community, which has also had repercussions in other communities in the Jambuaçu Territory. Collective action was fundamental to the success of SAF, since most farmers reported that they would not be able to implement their areas alone, reason why this community strength was essential for the success of a system which aims to generate income through diversification of production, resignifying the territory with their occupation through productive conservation.

Cultivando autonomia: análise da socioeconomia e agrobiodiversidade no quilombo de Providência, Salvaterra, Ilha do Marajó/PA

Traditional Quilombola communities have strategies for maintaining their way of life and reinforcing their cultural identity through traditional productive practices. This study sought to investigate the role of agrobiodiversity in economic and food strategies, recording the traditional knowledge and practices associated with it, as well as its relationship with food sovereignty in the Quilombola community of Providência, Salvaterra, Marajó, Pará state, Brazil. Methodologically, the research took place over sixty days in the months of February, May, July and November of 2019, being authorized by local leaders and the other residents through the signing of the Informed Consent Form. Later interviews were conducted with household representatives, with selection occurring through non-probabilistic sampling. Non-directive interviews were carried out and semi-structured questionnaires were applied with questions on socioeconomic, productive and food aspects, along with participant observation. Data were organized into Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for graphical optimization and, subsequently, diversity and diversity indexes were calculated, along with cultural salience and the community's food profile. Research with 11 heads of household showed that the local productive practices are strongly linked to local religious and food customs and that traditional activities, such as farming, extraction, fishing and animal husbandry, contribute to family income, which is mainly comes from state social benefits. Thus, we can conclude that traditional productive practices are directly related to the local Quilombola culture developed in part through agrobiodiversity, also expressed in faith, religiosity, historical heritage, as well as in daily life and in group's food preferences.
