The current organization of the brazilian rural space has transformed because of to the new technologies that have been inserted into the field. In this new scenery the field became a multi-functional space and began to meet different demands and occupations. The general objective of this study is to present a discussion based on the concepts and definitions of pluriactivity in family farming, emphasizing its importance when being carried out by people living in rural areas, since this activity is reorganized in the field and contributes to the income of many families. The specific objectives are: to address the concepts and definitions of pluriactivity in family agriculture in the socio-spatial dynamics of the field; and understand the importance of family farming for the pluriactivity. The theoretical reflections are anchored in the propositions of authors such as: Sérgio Schneider, K. Kautsky e A. Chayanov.

As we have tried to make evident in the text, it is possible to state that, the pluriactivity is a phenomenon in which farming families traditionally occupied with agricultural activities will develop other activities considered non-agricultural as an income complementation strategy. In addition, many rural settlements can to presente various natural, cultural, and socioeconomic factors, that contribute to the realization of pluriactivity, as: the local tradition, customs and way of life of the rural man, the production categories, agricultural activities and the those not developed in rural areas.
