摘要:In the city of Pereira Barreto (SP) the Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos - PAA (Food Acquisition Program), represents an important public policy, both for the commercialization of family farming products, as the fact that directly benefits 28 philanthropic entities in the city. In view of these actions, the present article examined which products were delivered; the main technologies applied in cropping systems; and the production strategies developed by family farmers participating in the PAA in the municipality. Were surveyed, through a questionnaire, 38 producers participating in the PAA (mode Purchase with Simultaneous Donation), residents of four rural (re)settlements the city. It showed that there was a great variety of products of plant origin delivered to the PAA and relative concentration of production around some products less demanding for infrastructure and technology. The conventional way of production is predominant, however the majority of the farmers adapt their crops to the conditions of the infrastructure and resources they have. In addition, some farmers seek to combine these factors to a greater autonomy in techno production in order to produce healthier food, avoiding or reducing the use of agrochemicals.
