Family Farming in Brazil
Legal Framework (Act 11.326/2006):
– Recognition and segment characterization
– Small and medium farms, agrarian reform's settlements and traditional rural communities (extractivists, riverine populations among others)
– Allows the development of specific public (focalization) policies to the segment
Define criteria to access public policies:
– Administration of the establishment
– Labour force predominantly from the family
– Income predominantly from the establishments
– Limit of area accordingly to the sub-regions realities

These figures show that family farmers and other rural dwellers are not condemned to poverty or mere receivers of social assistance
Instead, they can turn themselves into relevant economic actors and national development agents if stimulated by specific public policies
• Contribute to macroeconomic stability: food price stability, inflation control,
balance of payments (less food imports)
• Promotes social stability: workforce occupation in rural areas, stagnation
of exodus to urban areas; national integration
This is our strategy in Brazil
