This work aims to analyze the implantation of the Social Technologies for the coexistence of the farmer with the semiarid. It is a case study about the socio-productive logic of the family of Edésio Melo (Seu Dedé), which uses the Underground Dam, a low-cost social technology, aimed at obtaining sustainable development in the Brazilian semi-arid. The studied family uses this technology in their property, in the Bananeira Site, in São José da Tapera, Alagoas, as a strategy for the socioeconomic reproduction of the family, in the midst of drought. The present study also has a critical analysis of public policies in Brazil, especially in the Northeast region, which has always suffered from various climate changes. Agriculture has a very complex historical context, from this text it will be possible to understand a little about its trajectory, to our contemporary reality. From the data obtained, it can be seen that the improvement of the practices used by small family farmers generated positive results in the state of Alagoas. This is due to the direct partnership between the government, the productive sector and the agricultural research that provided a considerable increase in the levels produced by the agricultural sector.
