One of the ways to make your assessment is through the WHOQOL-bref questionnaire, which was created by the World Health Organization (WHO).

After that, descriptive statistical analysis of the data obtained with the questionnaire was performed. Later, these data were compared with other studies that also used this questionnaire. Results: The analysis of these data showed that, although the overall average indicates, compared to other studies, the results obtained in Taquari Valley are better, the evaluation of each domain independently may indicate that numerous factors can be changed to improve the QoL of producers, especially in the psychological sphere.
