This dissertation analyzes the work of three women who produce healthy food with the principles of agroecology and make direct sales to consumers and to the agroecological fairs of Foz do Iguaçu(PR). The methodology adopted is case study, participant research, semi-structured interviews and direct observation. It seeks to understand the relationship between productive and unproductive labor in peasant production units. It seeks to understand if women's participation in food production and marketing contributes to their economic autonomy, as well as analyzes the materialization of labor relations in the countryside. It covers some categories such as peasantry, peasant production, gender, patriarchy, marketing, and productive and unproductive labor. As a result, it is perceived how women's work in food production is fundamental for families' self-support. The analysis of the data obtained during the field research makes visible the income generated by the work of women, while revealing a contradiction present in gender relations and work in the field, that is, the work of women contributes to their economic autonomy, but economic autonomy does not always free peasant women from the shackles of patriarchal culture. To deconstruct this culture and rebuild under values of respect and equality is the challenge that the present research points to.
