Abstract: O artigo insere-se na discussão acerca dos impactos socioambientais gerados pelas práticas agrícolas convencionais, apresentando as principais conclusões de uma pesquisa que analisou o processo produtivo de flores em duas localidades do município de Nova Friburgo (RJ), com ênfase na compreensão das percepções e atitudes dos produtores frente aos riscos associados ao processo de trabalho. Adotou-se uma abordagem qualitativa, que priorizou as narrativas dos produtores de flores como o principal meio de aproximaç… Show more

“…A total of 12 studies were undertaken in North America, all of which in the United States, while Europe, Asia, and Africa accounted for four, three, and one study, respectively. Study populations varied, but were predominantly actors directly involved in agricultural production at different scales and involving different production models: poor farmers 30 ; family farmer 31 ; farmers [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43] ; indigenous communities 44,45 ; and farm workers, where studies investigated the subjective dimensions of exposure to agrochemicals 27,28,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] . It is interesting to note that the majority of studies involving the latter group were undertaken in North America and involved immigrant farm workers, principally Latin Americans 27,28,46,48,51,52,54,55 .…”

“…With respect to research approach, studies can be classified according to the type of research process used: qualitative, quantitative, or mixed 67 . Studies were primarily qualitative in nature estudios 28,[31][32][33][34][35][36]38,41,[47][48][49][50][51]55,56,60,[63][64][65][66] , followed by quantitative studies 27,30,37,39,40,[42][43][44][45][46]54,57,58 , with mixed methods research accounting for only a small proportion of the total number of studies 29,52,53,59,61,62 . An analysis of the selected articles by country and research approach shows that studies from core countries used predominantly quantitative approaches, while those from periphery countries tended to adopt qualitative research designs.…”

“…This model was based on the extensive use of chemical inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides, as well as the mechanization for crops on large areas of land. This entire process is considered as being a prime source of contamination of ecosystems, laborers and the local population (1) . In this context, instances of pesticide poisoning are registered every year.…”

“…Gasparini & Freitas (2013) mostram que a produção de flores é uma atividade com elevado emprego de agrotóxicos. Além da pressão para a ampla utilização de agrotóxico para cumprir as exigências de qualidade na comercialização das flores, os trabalhadores das estufas são mais expostos aos venenos -em relação a outros trabalhadores agrícolas -porque o rigor para o uso desses produtos nas plantas não é tão intenso como no caso da produção de alimentos (GASPARINI;FREITAS, 2013).…”
