The search for an alternative and more efficient agricultural production model concern ed with the preservation of natural resources leader to agroecology, on opproach that has been developing more and more. In order to bring this new vision of agriculture, in the 90's it was taken to, the community Maracajá in Taquaritinga North-PE Northeast of Brazil. However, until now agroecology is finding difficulty to be implementaed, in this context. This paper aims to identify the main difficulties in implementing agroecological activities in this community, as well as understand why some farmers adopted these practices and others don’t. We used questionnaires and interviews end the analyzes was besed on the model diffusion and analytical decision-making, model proposed by Everett Rogers (2003). We conclude that many farmers abandoned their agroecological practices due to lack of incentives, low economic return, and or different environment. This experience has shown great potential to farmers in semi arid Pernambuco.
