Categorização da agricultura familiar nas políticas públicas de profissionalização no Brasil

Abstract

The present article aimed to analyze peasant family farming, through concepts present in the various policies of Brazilian professionalization and development prospects for the countryside within the scope of the Federal Government, in the period 2003 to 2022. However, first we present the concepts and historical milestones pertinent to the professional education of the field. Next, there is a theoretical debate about the evolution of the concepts of peasantry and family agriculture, starting from the theoretical bases of Abramovay (1992), Wanderley (1998), Lipton (1968), Santos (1978) and Martins (1975). The research was conducted using the systematic literature review method. The results present the policies and professionalization programs for the field workers; they raise questions about the professional qualification aimed at the rural population that subordinates the peasant tradition to the capitalist production model; and the demands of the youth and youth category in the field complain of discontinuity and short duration in professional training. It is concluded from the literature survey that the public policies and programs created by the Brazilian government boosted productive activities and income generation, but submitting these rural workers to the logic of agribusiness as a proposed governance model for the economic development of the country.
