Cartilha de apoio ao Programa de fomento às atividades produtivas rurais

Abstract

This booklet aims to contribute to the promotion of rural productive activities of farmers, both men and women, and people from traditional communities. The process of constructing this educational product was conceived and produced by professors and students from the Federal University of Pampa (Unipampa), as well as technicians providing technical assistance and rural extension (ATER). The booklet received support from the Rural Productive Activities Promotion Program of the Ministry of Development and Social Assistance, Family, and Hunger Combating, in partnership with the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Family Farming.

The contents presented were developed to strengthen the capacity for food production and, consequently, the promotion of Food and Nutritional Security of the rural population. With this material, it is hoped to contribute to both income generation, the valorization of cultural diversity and identity of rural communities, along with the encouragement of families' skills in rural productive activities, productive diversity, the promotion of social organizations, and the reduction of rural poverty, through the guarantee of food and nutritional security.
