This study aimed to delineate, characterize and analyze the Bahian Cigar Production Chain in order to collaborate with the development of the sector and benefit the social environment. Rapid Appraisal (RA) methodology that intensifies the collection of secondary data and allows the combination of informal and formal structured methods were used. This productive chain has existed for more than a century, it is traditional and influences the regional culture, in addition to contributing to the trade balance of Bahia and Brazil, therefore, the federal and state governments have proposed public policies to encourage the sector. However, Agricultural credit was not effective in Bahia, since it registered very low rates of concession. It was found that in Bahia the production of benefited tobacco fell from 7 tons (t) in 2012 to 2.1 t in 2015, as well as the production of cigars that reduced from 15.5 million units in 2012 to 14 million in 2015. The total value of exports of Bahian cigars and cigarillos to international markets fell by 79% (1997 to 2015). It was also verified that in 2015, exempt from taxes, 5.4 t of cigars and cigarillos of Cuban origin, worth approximately US $ 1.3 million, entered in Brazil.
This paper proposes to analyze the work of Ferreira de Castro, A Selva (The Jungle), published in 1930, under the perspective of sustainability. For that, the 3-D Sustainability Model was used, which presents a new approach to objectively evaluate hierarchies and the definition of priorities in the relationship between economic, social, and environmental sustainability. The methodology used in this research is classified as narrative and bibliographic review research. The limits of environmental capacity were observed, and it is necessary to re-evaluate human actions on the Amazonian environment. There is a need for greater emphasis on the preservation of fauna, flora, rivers and streams, as well as changes in management practices and preservation of the rubber tree. The complexity of the man-Amazon relationship is clear when the economic, social, and environmental dynamics is observed.
Resumo : Este estudo objetivou determinar o índice de sustentabilidade do Município de Barra do Choça, Bahia. Para atingir essa meta, optou-se pela utilização do método do Gráfico Radar, no qual, por meio do cálculo da área dos triângulos formados pelos vértices de cada variável, foi possível encontrar um índice pela soma destes vértices. Ao mesmo tempo, o método possibilita a comparação das áreas obtidas, pois, quanto maior a área do triângulo formado, maior a sustentabilidade do indicador, permitindo a relação entre todas as variáveis pesquisadas. A base de dados foi composta por pesquisas de indicadores já consolidados na literatura, ou seja, a dimensão econômica, social e ambiental. Assim, optou-se pela seleção de três indicadores para cada dimensão, tendo como padrão a sua mensuração no ano de 2010. Essa metodologia proporcionou maior clareza na representação dos resultados, pois, por meio de diferentes indicadores, foi possível mensurar a sustentabilidade, além disso, foi de fácil aplicabilidade. Os índices das dimensões revelaram que a social obteve melhor desempenho do que a econômica e ambiental, nas quais seus indicadores apontam resultados semelhantes. Concluiu-se que o município apresentou bom Índice de Sustentabilidade. Espera-se que o estudo sirva para embasar as tomadas de decisões visando à melhoria da sustentabilidade municipal.

To achieve this goal it was decided to use the Radar-Graph Índice de sustentabilidade do Município de Barra do Choça-BA Redes (St. Cruz Sul, Online), v. 21, nº 2, p. 87 -106, maio/ago. 2016 88 method in which, by calculating the area of the triangles formed by the vertices of each variable, was possible to find an index by the sum of these vertices. At the same time, the method enables comparison of the areas obtained, because the higher the triangle area formed greater sustainability of the indicator, allowing the relationship between all the variables investigated. The database consisted of indicators of research already established in the literature, the economic, social and environmental dimensions. So we opted for the selection of three indicators for each dimension, having as its measurement standard in 2010. This methodology provided greater clarity in the presentation of the results, because through different indicators could measure the sustainability, beyond that was applied easily. The dimensions indices demonstrated that the social performance obtained was better than the economic and environmental, in which their indicators showed similar results. It was concluded that the municipal district had good Sustainability Index. It is hoped that the study serves to support decision-making aimed at improving municipal sustainability.
