Resumo: | This paper presents considerations on the Federal Law nº 12651/2012, better known as Brazil's new Forest Code, which granted the use of “apicum” (swamp in the Tupi language)” and “salgado” sectors (regions of mangrove) to shrimp farming. This code approved that 35% of these ecotones can be used for shrimp farming. Thus, this study aimed to look into the way these legislative updates have influenced or will influence the social, economic and environmental aspects of the shrimp farming activity in Rio Grande do Norte (RN), particularly in the municipality of Canguaretama. A quali-quantitative approach was used, with questionnaires and semi-structured interviews applied to the artisanal fishermen, shrimp farmers and to the State Environmental Agency. Artisanal fishermen understood that this legislative change degrades and unbalances the ecological environment, especially that there will be loss of territory and damage to their fishing resources, so they were against such change, the same opinion of the State Environmental Agency. On the other hand, shrimp farmers were in favor of the changes, claiming to be a legal incentive for their activity, contributing to the legalization of previously illegal enterprises, in addition to expanding their area of cultivation. |

Os carcinicultores poderão utilizar uma área de 35% desses ecótonos. Assim, esse estudo objetivou investigar de que forma as mudanças na legislação influenciaram ou influenciarão os aspectos sociais, econômicos e ambientais da atividade de carcinicultura no Rio Grande do Norte (RN), particularmente, no município de Canguaretama. Para tanto, utilizou uma abordagem qualiquantitativa com questionários e entrevistas semiestruturadas aplicados aos pescadores artesanais, carcinicultores e ao órgão ambiental licenciador da atividade no Estado. Os pescadores artesanais entenderam que essa alteração na legislação degrada e desequilibra o ambiente ecológico, sobretudo, que haverá perda de território e o comprometimento dos seus recursos pesqueiros, desse modo, apresentaram-se contra a mudança, mesma opinião compartilhada pelo Órgão Licenciador do Estado. Em contrapartida, os carcinicultores se mostraram favoráveis as alterações, alegando ser um incentivo legal para atividade a fim de contribuir para a legalização dos empreendimentos antes ilegais, além de ampliar sua área de cultivo.Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2019-03-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/3748110.14393/SN-v31n1-2019-37481Sociedade & Natureza; Vol. 31 (2019)Sociedade & Natureza; v. 31 (2019)1982-45130103-1570reponame:Sociedade & natureza (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporenghttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/37481/25630https://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/37481/25631Copyright (c) 2019 Revista Sociedade & Naturezainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLima, Thaís Bezerril Brandão deSilva, Márcia Regina Farias daCarvalho, Rodrigo Guimarães de2019-10-22T14:07:49Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/37481Revistahttp://www.sociedadenatureza.ig.ufu.br/PUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/oai||sociedade.natureza.ufu@gmail.com|| lucianamelo@ufu.br1982-45130103-1570opendoar:2019-10-22T14:07:49Sociedade & natureza (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false |
