CARACTERIZAÇÃO PRODUTIVA E SOCIO-ECONÔMICA DO ASSENTAMENTO SANTA AMÉLIA MUNICÍPIO DE DOIS IRMÃOS DO BURITI-MS

Abstract

This work presents an analysis of the productive and socioeconomic characterization in the Santa Amélia settlement, located in the municipality of Dois Irmãos do Buriti, Mato Grosso do Sul. The objective is to analyze the milk production process, including the socioeconomic aspects of the settled families. The methodology involved, initially, a literature review, followed by a quantitative/qualitative research with data collection through fieldwork. The results highlight a significant lack of financial resources, coupled with the devaluation of the milk being sold. It is concluded that the absence of regular technical assistance and greater support for family farming are the main factors hindering the development and improvement of production, as well as the assurance of quality of life for the families.
