Resumo: Ground was first broken in 2007 for the Açu Port, one of the largest port projects in the state of Rio de Janeiro, in the Fifth District of São João da Barra. Construction of its megastructures involved the clearing of extensive areas of restinga and the execution of a broad process of family-owned farmland expropriation by the Rio de Janeiro government. The objective of this study is to evaluate local family farmers’ perceptions of change as a means to understand their interrelationship with the environment before and after the installation of the Açu Port. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire that was designed to identify the positive and negative interventions related to the Açu Port in the Fifth District and local family farming systems. Two locations were selected for the sampling: Água Preta and Mato Escuro. Questionnaires were applied between May and August 2019 and a total of 105 farmers (65 in Água Preta and 40 in Mato Escuro) were enrolled in the study. The results show that local farmers believed the installation of the Açu Port directly interfered in their social, economic and environmental well-being. The main environmental and economic impacts listed by the farmers were: salinization of water used for irrigation of their plantations and the process of expropriation of their lands. The results obtained demonstrate that in addition to affecting the dynamics of São João da Barra coastal ecosystems, including the restinga and lagoons, the economic development model adopted by the Açu Port has affected the quality of life of these farmers, interfered with their agricultural areas and directly affected their social reproduction.

Para a construção de suas megaestruturas, extensas áreas de restinga foram suprimidas e um amplo processo de desapropriação de terras pertencentes a agricultores familiares foi conduzido pelo governo fluminense. O objetivo deste trabalho é verificar a percepção dos agricultores familiares que habitam o entorno do território para entender suas inter-relações com o meio ambiente onde o Porto do Açu foi instalado, antes e após a chegada deste empreendimento. A partir de uma amostra aleatória de agricultores, a coleta de dados foi realizada com um questionário semiestruturado que foi construído para identificar as interferências positivas e negativas do Porto do Açu no 50 Distrito e nos sistemas agrícolas familiares que existiam em seu interior. Duas localidades foram escolhidas para a composição da amostra: Água Preta e Mato Escuro. A aplicação dos questionários ocorreu entre Maio e Agosto de 2019 com um total de 105 agricultores (65 em Água Preta e 40 em Mato Escuro). Os resultados mostraram que os agricultores consideram que o Porto do Açu interferiu diretamente na sua sustentabilidade social, econômica e ambiental. Os principais impactos ambientais e econômicos elencados pelos agricultores foram: a salinização das águas utilizadas para irrigação de suas plantações e o processo de desapropriação de suas terras. Os resultados obtidos mostram que, além de afetar a dinâmica dos ecossistemas costeiros são-joanenses, dentre eles, restinga e lagoas, o modelo de desenvolvimento econômico adotado pelo Porto do Açu alterou a qualidade de vida destes agricultores e interferiu nas suas áreas agrícolas, afetando diretamente a sua reprodução social. Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2022-03-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/6312310.14393/SN-v34-2022-63123Sociedade & Natureza; Vol. 34 No. 1 (2022): Sociedade & Natureza; v. 34 n. 1 (2022): 1982-45130103-1570reponame:Sociedade & natureza (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporenghttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/63123/33514https://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/63123/33515Copyright (c) 2021 José Luiz Pontes da Silva Júnior, Marcos Antonio Pedlowskihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPontes da Silva Júnior, José LuizPedlowski, Marcos Antonio2023-04-06T20:32:29Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/63123Revistahttp://www.sociedadenatureza.ig.ufu.br/PUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/oai||sociedade.natureza.ufu@gmail.com|| lucianamelo@ufu.br1982-45130103-1570opendoar:2023-04-06T20:32:29Sociedade & natureza (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
