The objective of this article is to analyze the dissident/productive character of the Dom Tomás Balduíno productive settlement. For this purpose, field research, documentary research, and bibliographic research were carried out, with location, survey, reading, and annotations of references. In addition to the survey of documents, application of focal interview, carrying out a transversal walk, with the systematic observation of the landscape and photographic register. This settlement is a dissident territory because despite the displacement of the families to the property made by the National Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform-INCRA. The peasants nowadays resist subjective, symbolic, institutional violence from the agrarian oligarchy and the Brazilian State. They are victims of the denial of the public policy of agrarian reform, of unfulfilled promises to supervise the fulfillment of the social function of the land. They also install insurgent spatial practices, promote agroecological production, with the development of the agro-biodiversity, the food sovereignty, the productive autonomy of inputs, of the alternative markets. The material substrate was restructured, re-functionalized, with an endowment of the principles, concepts, and intelligent behaviors of agro-ecology.
