ANAIS 8º SEMINÁRIO CIENTÍFICO SOBRE AGRICULTURA FAMILIAR 2019

Abstract

With the aim of consolidating the space for disseminating technical and scientific productions related to family farming and promoting research in the area, the Instituto Federal Goiano (IF Goiano) promoted the eighth edition of the Scientific Seminar on Family Farming, during the Agro Centro- Family West. The event, which took place this year at the Events Center of the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), featured 197 works selected from a total of 260 submitted, including simple and expanded summaries for retirements in posters and oral, respectively. The Centro-Oeste Familiar Agro Fair was conceived and initially carried out by the Federal University of Goiás - UFG in partnership with several public and private institutions, such as the Ministry of Agrarian Development - MDA, the National Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform - Incra, the Brazilian Research Company Agriculture - Embrapa, Goiás Agency for Technical Assistance, Rural Extension and Agricultural Research - EMATER, SEBRAE, social movements, confederations and cooperatives of family farmers. In 2012, the IF Goiano - Campus Morrinhos, hosted the event in the interior of the state for the first time and since then this internalization has occurred, alternating with the edition in the capital. An edition was held at the IF Goiano Campus Urutaí, in 2014, and under the coordination of the State University of Goiás in São Luís de Montes Belos, in 2018. The central theme of the fair is Family Agriculture and several tools are used to consolidate this theme, such as short courses, exhibitions, round tables and technological exhibition. The Scientific Seminar on Family Agriculture was designed by the IF Goiano in order to gather subsidies that can be made available to rural producers, the main target audience, in addition to students and people interested in contacting new methods and technologies aimed at production, management and commercialization. agricultural products and derivatives. The next edition of the Fair and Seminar, scheduled for 2020, will take place at Campus Ceres and will certainly also encourage scientific research and the participation of many people. After this brief tour of such important events for the community, we make available to interested people the eighth edition of the Annals of the Scientific Seminar on Family Farming. We wish you a good read and that it can serve as an incentive for the publication of future research in the area, as well as bringing new possibilities to Family Farming, responsible for about two thirds of the food that arrives at the table of Brazilians.
