Implantação do projeto "trailers da agricultura familiar", desenvolvido pela Secretaria de Agricultura e Meio Ambiente de Campos Novos - SC

Abstract

The present work reports the activities developed during the preparation and implantation of the Project of Trailers of Family Agriculture, developed by the Department of Agriculture and Environment (SAMA) of Campos Novos, SC, to analyze its effectiveness. The producer's fair was held at the rural producer's house and had ten family farmers exhibiting their products, and due to the producer's house located in a region out of the center, few consumers went to the fair, making the results unsatisfactory for the producer. Based on this assumption and considering that Campos Novos is an essentially agricultural municipality, SAMA conceived the traveling fair through trailers, where seven families participate in the project exhibiting their products and carrying out the fair. Based on this new model, the economy of families improved and provided access to various public policies, promoting an increase in the sale of products. Given this fact, the maximization of income and the satisfactory results obtained show signs of the permanence of families in the countryside through family succession. In addition, by presenting itself as a pilot project in the country, Campos Novos has been an example for other states and municipalities, thus confirming the effectiveness of the project.
