Abstract

This dissertation was developed according to the line of research that studies socio- environmental dynamics within the scope of the Postgraduate Program in Agroecology

and Sustainable Rural Development (PPGADR) at the Laranjeiras do Sul Campus of the Federal University of Fronteira Sul (UFFS). The study analyzes the relationship between the inflationary gap in the per capita value of School Meals, food inflation and the quality of School Meals offered by the National School Meals Program (PNAE) in the five regions of Brazil (South, Southeast, North, Center -West and Northeast), in the period between 2017 and 2022. Criteria were applied to select research data in the States of Paraná, São Paulo, Pará, Goiás and Alagoas. School Food comprises the provision of food in the school environment, regardless of its origin, during the school period, in accordance with article 1 of Law No. 11,947, of June 16, 2009. This research is documentary and the methodology used it was mixed, that is, qualitative and quantitative. The results of the percentage scenario found in this research can promote discussion about the types of management and quality of School Food, relating the type of management to the quality of this food, and about how the type of management impacts the supply of fresh or minimally processed. The study highlights the complexity of financial dynamics, the challenges of implementing redistributive policies and the importance of strategies that strengthen family farming.
