This article aims to deepen the discussion about agricultural activity in metropolitan cities. Our analysis focuses specifically on the Fortaleza Metropolitan Area (FMA), State of Ceará, Brazil, and allows us to further understand family farming in that area. For this purpose, we reviewed a set of primary and secondary data regarding the profile of the producers and agricultural and food processing establishments in the metropolitan area under analysis. This multifaceted approach helped us identify key issues related to production and food systems in the FMA, and showed the importance of a research agenda focused on evaluating the potential of family farming in this specific context. This study presents the production strategies adopted, the challenges faced and the opportunities identified by family farmers. Discussing agriculture in metropolitan areas help us connect socio-spatial and socio-environmental problems, in addition to enabling us to suggest the development of cross-sectoral public policies. By offering a comprehensive overview, this study aims to contribute to effective policy making, promoting the sustainability and resilience of family farming in metropolitan contexts. We hope that the reflection on agriculture developed in such areas and its characteristics in local and metropolitan scenarios will be helpful to researchers, managers and those responsible for the implementation and execution of public policies, as well as other agents and entities interested in family (and urban) agriculture.

Este texto objetiva ampliar as discussões em torno da atividade agropecuária em municípios metropolitanos. Nossa reflexão recai especificamente sobre a Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza, no Ceará, e nos permitiu avançar no entendimento da sua agricultura familiar. Para isso, analisamos um conjunto de dados primários e secundários a respeito do perfil do produtor, dos estabelecimentos agropecuários e da produção de alimentos na região metropolitana em análise. Essa abordagem multifacetada nos ajudou a identificar questões-chave relacionadas à produção e aos sistemas alimentares na RMF, bem como mostrou a importância de agenda de pesquisa que busque avaliar o potencial da agricultura familiar nesse contexto específico. A pesquisa menciona as estratégias de produção adotadas, os desafios enfrentados e as oportunidades identificadas pelos agricultores familiares. Discutir a agricultura nos espaços metropolitanos pode articular várias lutas de natureza socioespacial e socioambiental, além de sugerir a elaboração de políticas públicas intersetoriais. Ao oferecer uma visão abrangente, este estudo visa informar a formulação de políticas eficazes, promovendo a sustentabilidade e a resiliência da agricultura familiar em contextos metropolitanos. Esperamos que a reflexão sobre as agriculturas realizadas neste espaço e sua caracterização em contextos municipais e metropolitanos, seja útil aos pesquisadores, gestores e operadores de políticas públicas, bem como demais agentes e instituições interessados na agricultura familiar (e urbana).

In Southeastern Brazil, artisanal fishing communities reside, operate and suffer from interference originating from various economic branches. Thus, this study is aimed at identifying the critical points concerning the practice of artisanal fishing from the traditional knowledge of artisanal fishers in the coastal mesoregion of ES. 102 ethnographic interviews were conducted in 2022 with artisanal fishers through a semistructured questionnaire containing both open and closed questions. The critical points of fishing were identified through a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats). All the participants were men (n=102; 100%), and they reported that negative critical points (weaknesses and threats) exert the greatest influence on fishing. From the perspective of these fishers, the main problems that interfere with artisanal fishing are the lack of adequate fish storage, the precariousness of the vessels, the reduction in fish stocks, the high perishability of fish, the devaluation of traditional knowledge, and the presence of middlemen that prevent the commercialization of fish production from moving directly from the fisher to the final consumer. The identification of these critical points enables the recognition of flaws in the production chain and the realization that they can be minimized through public policies and comanagement strategies related to the economic, ecological, and social development of the sector.
在巴西东南部,手工捕鱼社区居住、经营并受到来自不同经济部门的干扰。因此,本研究旨在从 ES 沿海中间地带手工捕鱼者的传统知识中找出有关手工捕鱼实践的关键点。2022 年,通过一份包含开放式和封闭式问题的半结构化问卷,对个体渔民进行了 102 次人种学访谈。通过 SWOT 分析(优势、劣势、机会和威胁)确定了捕鱼的关键点。所有参与者均为男性(n=102;100%),他们表示负面关键点(弱点和威胁)对捕鱼的影响最大。从这些渔民的角度来看,干扰手工捕鱼的主要问题是缺乏足够的鱼类储存、船只不稳定、鱼类资源减少、鱼类极易变质、传统知识贬值,以及中间商的存在阻碍了鱼类生产的商业化,使其无法直接从渔民转向最终消费者。确定这些关键点有助于认识到生产链中的缺陷,并认识到可以通过与该行业的经济、生态和社会发展有关的公共政策和共同管理战略将这些缺陷降至最低。

Abstract Water management in the Brazilian semi-arid region has been, for decades, a challenge for institutions and decision-makers due to its intrinsic characteristics. The density of human occupation makes the region very vulnerable to drought events and problems related to the quality and need for water use are central issues. For this reason, this study presents an approach to assess the situation of water reservoirs in the semiarid based on the Water Quality Index (WQI) and Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM). The WQI was used to calculate water quality and later applied as a criterion for the MCDM model proposed. The model also considers the need and availability criteria to assess the reservoirs of the two largest drainage basins in Rio Grande do Norte state, Brazil. The MCDM method used was R-TOPSIS since it is more flexible and robust for future analyses in other situations. The results showed the condition of the reservoirs, in order to support decision-makers in the operation of these facilities and enable multiple use of the waters. The combined approach proposed may provide important contributions in the analysis of water reservoirs in order to supply the semiarid region, where water issue is critical.

Sugarcane cultivation methods and processes usually have negative impacts on the environment. However, this industry has been seeking more sustainable technologies, ranging from the adequate disposal of the organic residues produced to the elimination of pre-harvest burning and introduction of mechanized harvest. The objective of this work was to verify the influence of vinasse application and mechanized harvesting on the physical and chemical aspects of a dystrophic Red Yellow Argisol of medium texture, cultivated with sugarcane. For this, a field experiment in a Completely Randomized Design, with a factorial scheme was conducted. Four management treatments, with three replications, were evaluated: T1 - Without application of vinasse, burned cane followed by manual harvest, without irrigation; T2 - With application of vinasse, mechanized harvest, without irrigation; T3 - With application of vinasse, mechanized harvest, with irrigation; T4 - With application of vinasse, burned cane followed by manual harvest, without irrigation. Soil samples were collected in three depths (0 – 20 cm, 20 – 40 cm and 40 – 60 cm) and soil physical and chemical characteristics were determined. The data obtained were submitted to ANOVA and compared by the Tukey test (p≤0.05) of probability, using the statistical program ASSISTAT 7.7 beta. The results showed that fertigation with vinasse did not influence soil density, particle density, and total porosity. However, mechanized harvesting increased soil density and total porosity. The soil in the experimental unit without vinasse application presented a more acidic pH and high levels of aluminum saturation, causing a decrease in the availability of nutrients, and the soils treated with vinasse had an increase in nutrient availability. Therefore, the addition of vinasse can be an important strategy in maintaining and increasing long-term soil fertility in sugarcane cropping systems.

The geographical mesoregion of the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba has an economy strongly focused on agribusiness, with grain and sugarcane production levels that put them at the forefront of the economic and political scenario of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. However, scientific production focused on soil diversity in this region has long been undervalued compared to other regions of the state and country where the soils exhibit more diverse and, therefore, more intriguing geological and geomorphological characteristics. This paper aims to evaluate the evolution and spatialization of bibliographic production with the central theme of soils in the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba mesoregion. As such, papers from the last three decades within the municipalities of the studied region were selected from five important journals. The papers from the initial screening were analyzed for the following: the profile of the authors (gender and institutional affiliation); number of authors per paper; methods used; and distribution of these papers across the selected region. The results indicate a concentration of papers in four municipalities and a total lack of publications from another 40. Males heavily dominated scientific production in the analyzed segments. Despite the mesoregion having 11 public higher education institutions, most municipalities' soil research was incipient. Regarding the methods used by researchers, in municipalities where more institutional partnerships were made possible, there was an increase in the number of techniques and methods explored in investigating problems. Although the study area presents relative geological and geomorphological homogeneity that gives a monotonous aspect to the landscape, knowledge of its pedodiversity, and its economic significance for agriculture, justifies the need to resume soil studies in the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba, particularly by exploring methods and municipalities that are still little known.

O alicerce metodológico se estruturou com revisão bibliográfica, levantamento documental, pesquisa de campo e entrevistas. Nossos resultados revelam a articulação entre conhecimento tradicional e científico como elemento chave na sofisticação produtiva do QMA da Canastra, promovendo a qualificação do trabalho e a busca pelo atendimento a padrões de exigência do mercado consumidor sem romper com laços e práticas do saber-fazer local, fruto de uma relação sociedade-natureza historicamente construída. A discussão proposta é situada no âmbito de estudos empíricos sobre inovação baseada em recursos naturais na América Latina e de reflexões em torno de sistemas territoriais de inovação (STI), que leva em consideração uma perspectiva multiescalar do processo inovativo que tem vigorado em estudos no campo da Geografia do Conhecimento e da Inovação. Apesar dos avanços constatados, salientamos que a estruturação do QMA da Canastra ainda enfrenta obstáculos com fragilidades estruturais típicas de STI periféricos. Almejamos que os resultados possam contribuir não apenas para a compreensão da região produtiva do QMA da Canastra, mas que possa ser um material de apoio para políticas de inovação que consideram a necessidade de um olhar para a realidade das regiões.
