This research discusses the role of family agriculture cooperative networks in country life social and economic aspects in southern Santa Catarina. Since colonization period, mainly Italian and German, the region has a history of several agricultural cooperatives formed by agricultural product, some of which having already more than 45 years of operation. From the year 2004, seeking to meet the needs of marketing, appear new agricultural cooperatives in the decentralized model. Thus, the study aims to analyze the importance of agricultural cooperatives by product and decentralized to the social reproduction of family farmers associated with them. To meet this purpose was done a research with twenty associated from four agricultural cooperatives, two by product and two decentralized. The study shows how these cooperatives contribute positively with associated families by creating favorable marketing conditions to local farmers and also providing technical improvement. However, even with the recognition of the benefits of the cooperative, it was found that some associated have not sold their entire production through its cooperative thereby resulting in economic and social losses for the entire system. |
