Sustainable public purchases that have local family farming as participants, according to the law 11947 from July 16th 2009, create an innovative public policy that unites two needs: that of public entities, to provide the population, according to their institutional goals, with quality agricultural products, meeting sustainable criteria; and also, the needs of family farmers, who need to expand markets to sell their products. Programs such as the Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar - PNAE (National School Feeding Program) and the Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos – PAA (Food Acquisition Program) are examples of this kind of purchase, triggering the parties involved in this process of commercial interaction. However, there are other ways for local family farmers to sell their foodstuffs and even other items to public entities. Thereby, the scope of public policies aimed at local economic and social development is also expanded, by legal provisions. Thus, the main objective of this research was to assess the participation of local family farming in the public procurement processes of IFTM - campus Uberlândia, identifying whether there has been an increase or decrease in their participation in the procurement processes. Secondly, the objective was also to discuss the successes and difficulties, proposing solutions, and expanding forms of commercial interaction beyond the food promotion programs already instituted by the federal government. To achieve this result, the qualitative research method was used through the analysis of documents contained in the public purchase processes, through data collection in governmental electronic research websites with information on public procurement, and through the application of semi-structured interviews with two managers of the Institute and two representatives of local family farming. As a result of this data collection and analysis, it was understood that there was no increase in the participation of family farmers in the purchase process, indicating a lack of alignment between the agency's needs and the products offered by local family agriculture. Thus, it was concluded that there were failures in the purchase processes by the Uberlândia campus for the acquisition of products from family agriculture, which led to a participation in the processes lower than expected. As a solution to the problem of not increasing the participation of family farming, the IFTM was indicated to provide a more objective description of the products they need, according to local production and to promote more processes in the form that waives the holding of a bid proceeding. Finally, training sessions were proposed to the managers of the IFTM - Uberlândia campus and also to the farmers and their representatives, generating at the end of the work, as a technological product, a mini-course on the subject.
