The present study aims to analyze how the advice of the Casa da Mulher do Nordeste has favored the change and / or changes in the processes and structures of unequal gender relations in the family farming hinterland of Pajeú. For this, we resorted to the literature review of studies of peasant family farming in the northeast, gender studies, agroecological extension and analysis of secondary data, such as documents systematized by joints and NGOs Participatory observation in four units family production, the use of participatory methodologies, narrative interviews with farmers, participation in meetings and events organized by the Casa da Mulher do Nordeste were to analyze the applicants experienced by these women and gender relations reality that pervades their life histories. To understand the limitations and advances the advice of the Casa da Mulher do Nordeste in the backwoods of Pajeú, we use the interviews and monitoring the activities of techniques, such as the perception of the service received by farmers. Despite immense hardships such as drought in the last three years, are women farmers, people with knowledge and knowledge, which resist and fight daily for alternatives that promote the survival of their families in semiarid. The accumulation of the practices of these women and the consolidated agro-ecological transition and self-organization in autonomous rural women's movements experiences, social technologies such as with the P1MC project were fundamental to improving the lives of families and particular women, mainly responsible for water management in the property. The policy of technical assistance and rural extension, of economic and financial integration, are still an obstacle to the inclusion of women in management, decision and participation projects and public policies in the semiarid process. Few advances are outstanding under the reorganization of domestic tasks, resulting in heavy workload of women. Knowledge management and marketing processes were identified as insufficient by farmers and a gap for the technical assistance of Casa da Mulher do Nordest. The challenges are numerous and different orders. However, rural women reaffirm the importance of autonomy, food security, a service that recognizes their work in diverse agroecological production, social technologies, and above all, appreciation of its social and political role for the survival of families in field and semiarid.
