“…Therefore, women have the potential to be a source of qualified human resources to increase the sustainability of the property, for example, being precursors of organic production (Karam, 2004) and, also, as a source of competitiveness for the agricultural sector, especially in agribusiness management (Cielo et al, 2014). Women make up the very important stocks of human and social capital to shift the production curve of both the most technological and the less technological agricultural sectors, whose stocks are also essential to achieve higher levels of economic, social and environmental development.…”

This work aims to analyze the spatial distribution of agricultural establishments managed by women in the Brazilian municipalities, based on data from the Agricultural and Livestock Censuses of 2006 and 2017, applying spatial econometrics. The results showed that the Northeast and North regions had the highest concentration of High-High clusters in 2006, and increased in 2017. These regions with greater and poorer rural areas expanded the participation agricultural establishments managed by women, and they were responsible for 72.42% the variation that occurred between both Censuses. The education variable was positively related to the increase of the establishments managed by women in 2017. In the municipalities where there was a process of disappearance of agricultural establishments, there was an increase in the presence of female managers. We concluded that the promotion of public policies for women in rural areas improves of potential to promote the development of these establishments as well as rural areas.

“…Sendo assim, é possível inferir que essa presença das mulheres na cooperativa pode representar ganhos em termos de competitividade e produtividade, pois segundo Cielo et al (2014), a maior participação e engajamento das mulheres nas distintas atividades agrícolas, tanto na produção quanto no gerenciamento, colabora para a geração de políticas públicas que permitam às mulheres se moverem ao longo da cadeia de valor, acessando mercados e contribuindo para o crescimento econômico.…”

Este artigo objetiva investigar a cooperativa D’Irituia no que diz respeito ao seu processo de produção e contexto socioeconômico. Para realizar a coleta de dados, 29 entrevistas foram validadas em uma amostra de 90,63%. Os questionários foram aplicados nos meses de janeiro, fevereiro e março de 2019. Dentre as principais atividades produtivas desenvolvidas pelos cooperados, destacou-se a produção de produtos florestais não madeireiros. O sistema de produção desenvolvido está baseado em sistemas agroflorestais com predominância de espécies frutíferas. A boa participação das mulheres no quadro social é decisiva para o desenvolvimento da cooperativa, porém, a força de trabalho encontra-se diminuída. É imprescindível buscar certificação orgânica. Existe ainda, a necessidade de fortalecer cada vez mais a marca D’Irituia. Nesse sentido, é fundamental o apoio governamental para projetar os produtos da cooperativa, pois a não diferenciação das embalagens dificulta uma identidade visual que represente a cooperativa.

“…However, such events until the beginning of the 21st century had an exclusionary character, with the predominant participation of men with higher socioeconomic status (Cielo, 2014). Even according to the author, women often feared to participate in events linked to national agriculture, including in this aspect events linked to coffee cultivation, mainly due to the prejudice existing in this sector.…”

There is no doubt about the importance of coffee cultivation to the Brazilian economy, a fact revealed by a large number of national and international events in this sector. However, it has only been in the last two decades that women have taken part in such events, mainly because of the prejudice that prevailed until the beginning of the 21st century. The present study was carried out with the aim of identifying the profile of the women participating in the events of the coffee throughout Brazil. A total of 556 questionnaires were applied during events held in the years 2016 and 2017 in ten coffee regions of Brazil. The questioned were composed by 23 questions addressing: schooling; the areas of performance and income of women in the coffee sector. Approximately 25 per cent of the women interviewed have post-graduate level training, and only 0.6 per cent are not literate. Most women operate in the area of coffee production have the monthly income between 2 to 5 minimum wages. In general, women who work in the coffee sector and participate in events linked to the national coffee industry, work mainly in the production stage and have a high degree of education, however, receive low wages.
