Resumo: | This study aims to investigate the meanings attributed by family farmers at the Feira Popular da Agricultura Familiar (FPAF) in Duque de Caxias to agroecological and organic food, as well as the importance of their activity and the expectation of stimulating consumption by the local population, contributing to its food security. Information was compiled on family farming at the national and state levels; public policies for the group; production and distribution of agroecological foods in Brazil. Participant observations were made at a popular street market and, subsequently, interviews were conducted with these farmers, containing questions about their work and marketing routine. Data were underwent content analysis, which resulted in four categories of meaning. They disclosed the perspective of farmers that consumption of agroecological food is still modest, compared to that of conventional food, given their higher price, logistical difficulties, and the insufficient scale of dissemination among local consumers. The study shows that family farmers attribute great value to their work and to the FPAF space, owing to the way they communicate their social identity. In addition, they recognize the importance of natural food in their own lives and in the lives of consumers. This fact suggests that marginalization of the class originates from the lack of government support and visibility to the public, given that producers have an advanced perception of their role as a potential agent for transforming eating habits and bringing consumers closer to the food chain. |

Se recopiló información sobre la agricultura familiar a nivel nacional y estatal; políticas públicas dirigidas al colectivo; producción y distribución de alimentos agroecológicos en Brasil. Se realizaron observaciones participantes en la feria popular y, posteriormente, entrevistas a estos agricultores, con preguntas sobre su rutina de trabajo y comercialización. Luego del análisis de contenido de los datos obtenidos, surgieron cuatro categorías de significado. Traen la perspectiva de los agricultores de que el consumo de alimentos agroecológicos aún es discreto, en comparación con los convencionales, dado el mayor precio, las dificultades logísticas y la insuficiente escala de difusión entre los consumidores locales. El estudio muestra que los agricultores familiares otorgan un gran valor a su trabajo y al espacio de la FPAF por la forma en que comunican su identidad social. Además, reconocen la importancia de la alimentación natural en su vida y de los consumidores. Este hecho sugiere que la marginación de la clase es el resultado de la falta de apoyo del Gobierno y de visibilidad para el público, ya que los productores tienen una percepción avanzada de su papel como un agente potencial para transformar los hábitos alimentarios y acercar a los consumidores a la cadena alimentaria.O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar os significados atribuídos pelos agricultores familiares da Feira Popular da Agricultura Familiar (FPAF) de Duque de Caxias aos alimentos agroecológicos e orgânicos cultivados, bem como à importância de sua atividade e a expectativa de estimular o consumo da população do município, contribuindo para sua segurança alimentar. Foram compiladas informações sobre a agricultura familiar em âmbito nacional e estadual; as políticas públicas voltadas ao grupo; a produção e distribuição de alimentos agroecológicos no Brasil. Foram realizadas observações participantes na feira popular e, posteriormente, conduzidas entrevistas com estes agricultores contendo perguntas sobre a rotina de trabalho e comercialização. Após a análise de conteúdo dos dados obtidos, emergiram quatro categorias de significação. Elas trazem a perspectiva dos agricultores de que o consumo de alimentos agroecológicos ainda é discreto, comparado aos convencionais, dado o preço mais elevado, as dificuldades logísticas e a insuficiente escala de disseminação entre consumidores locais. O estudo mostra que os agricultores familiares atribuem grande valor a seu trabalho e ao espaço da FPAF devido à forma como comunicam sua identidade social. Além, reconhecem a importância da alimentação natural em suas vidas e na dos consumidores. Tal fato sugere que a marginalização da classe seja resultado da falta de suporte do governo e de visibilidade para o público, já que os produtores apresentam percepção avançada do seu papel como potencial agente transformador dos hábitos alimentares e de aproximação do consumidor com a cadeia de alimentos.Edunisc - Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul2024-02-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/redes/article/view/1726010.17058/redes.v29i1.17260Redes ; Vol. 29 (2024)Redes; Vol. 29 (2024)Redes; Vol. 29 (2024)Redes; v. 29 (2024)1982-6745reponame:Redes (Santa Cruz do Sul.
