A quantitative exploratory descriptive research was carried out, which had the stage of data collection through a questionnaire structured according to the Framework method for Evaluation of Natural Resource Management Systems Incorporating Sustainability Indicators-MESMIS and counted on the participation of 14 rural producers. The results obtained depict some traits similar to other studies in the area.Since the inheritance process and the transmissibility are in a worrisome perspective, even if there are heirs interested in following the livestock activity, the economic condition and the available area may be factors that will not allow the continuity of the practice. As a suggestion, it is pointed out the need for producers to strengthen themselves by seeking partnerships with representative entities that integrate the productive chain, aiming at structural improvements and the implementation of public policies. Thus, enabling a sustainable production that will be fundamental for the conservation of the Pampa biome in terms of natural landscapes, as well as strengthening social and cultural values of the activity.
