ResumoOs roçados e quintais ribeirinhos representam uma alternativa sustentável de produção alimentícia e medicinal para as comunidades tradicionais da Amazônia, principalmente no que se refere à diversidade de produtos e à geração de renda. Considerando as funções ecológicas e sociais desses espaços, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a agrobiodiversidade desses ambientes na comunidade Boca do Môa, município de Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre. A coleta dos dados foi realizada através de entrevistas participativas, formais e indutivas seguindo um questionário semiestruturado com questões abertas, além de visitas in loco. Os roçados apresentam diversas espécies na mesma área, sendo a mandioca o principal cultivo. Os quintais possuem arranjos espaciais de espécies alimentícias, destacando-se frutíferas e hortaliças, além de plantas medicinais. Assim, tanto os quintais quanto os roçados auxiliam na subsistência e na renda das famílias ribeirinhas dessa comunidade. AbstractAgrobiodiversity in riparian backyards and rural cutover lands in the Boca do Moa community -Acre, Brazil. The riparian rural cutover lands and backyards represent a sustainable alternative for the production of food and medicinal drugs to the traditional communities from the Amazon, especially with regard to products diversity and income generation. Considering the ecological and social functions of these spaces, this paper aims at analyzing the agrobiodiversity of these environments in the Boca Moa community, in the town of Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre, Brazil. Data collection was carried out through participative, formal, and inductive interviews following a semi-structured questionnaire with open questions, besides in loco visits. The rural cutover lands present many species at the same area, and manioc is the main product cultivated. The backyards have spatial arrangements of food species, with emphasis on fruits and vegetables, besides medicinal plants. Thus, both the backyards and rural cutover lands participate in the subsistence and income of riparian families from this community.
