agroecological faróis; territorial agroecological transition; agroecological territories
Agroecology presents itself as a proposal for technical-scientific, political knowledge and social organization in contrast to the current agricultural production models on agribusiness properties. The central question presented is the research project on the transition and agroecological scale in the territory of the Association of Agroecological Producers and Residents of Imbé, Marreco and Vizinhos Sítios- ASSIM. In order to unravel the aspects involved in agroecological production, considering the various actors involved, the people, the social organizations, the government institutions at their various levels, understanding the dynamics of territorial development on the otic of a broader context, reflecting on the agricultural space and the links between the various actors. The expected results based on the proposed objectives and the non-development of the planned years are linked to a series of factors, including those of personal order, institutional relationship and academic environment, from which it is expected to build and defend a thesis project, not Scope of the research line "Society, economy and knowledge construction" in the Post Graduation Program in Agroecology and Territorial Development/PPGADT of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco/UFRPE and as a final product, the elaboration of a "Conclusive Technical Report" with the purpose of transition and escalation in peasant family farming territories. The methodological path that we intend to follow is of a qualitative and quantitative nature, exchanging two types of approaches to clarify a research problem that does not mean reducing the difficulty of abstracting the aspects of reality in its fullness. The methodology to delineate the process(es) of “scaling up/massification” is a fundamental contribution to the methodological path that we want to print to the research work, but we knew that the research problem under discussion is only the beginning of new investigations on The social dynamics in the processes of transition and scaling of Agroecology in the remnant territories of monoculture of cane.
