“…Additionally, the fact that São Domingos is a rural settlement may have influenced the knowledge difference. Considering Brazil's vast territory, government policies for settlements devalue regional differences as well as local knowledge (Araújo & Amorozo 2012).…”

Background: Local ecological knowledge (LEK) has been a great ally in developing conservation strategies that are more attuned to the local reality. However, since this knowledge is dynamic, it is necessary to conduct studies that understand how cultural, sociodemographic and ecological factors can affect it. In this regard, the present study to assess the knowledge of farmers from different communities regarding plant species in forests of varying ages, as well as the sociodemographic and environmental perception factors that may influence them. Methods:The study was conducted in two rural communities in the municipality of José de Freitas, Piauí, Brazil. The research involved farmers who possess knowledge about forests of different ages, selected through the snowball sampling technique. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and guided tours for species collection. A total of 36 farmers participated in the study, including nine women and 27 men.Results: : Our study unveiled distinct plant species knowledge in rural communities for forests of varying ages, often tied to cultural contexts. Sociodemographic and environmental factors analysis revealed age and perceived forest regeneration time influenced early-stage plant knowledge. For late-stage plant knowledge, factors included fragment visits, perception of regeneration time, and their interaction. While communities had differing knowledge on early and late-stage plants, common explanatory factors emerged. Conclusions:The study suggests that in the studied communities, it's important to consider both age and current environmental experiences of farmers in LEK studies. This highlights the valuable contributions of both older and younger farmers in understanding changes in forest fragments of varying ages.

Etnobotânica e conservação on farm de mandioca (Manihot esculentaCrantzResumo: Este estudo inves gou o papel da comunidade tradicional Luzia (CL) e do assentamento rural "Banco da Terra" (BT) (Mato Grosso, Brasil) na conservação on farm de mandioca, através de censo socioeconômico, levantamento etnobotânico, iden fi cação das variedades locais e observação par cipante. Na CL foi encontrado maior conhecimento etnobotânico, embora o BT tenha apresentado maior riqueza (39 BT e 30 CL) e diversidade (H' = 3,24 BT e 3,01 CL).

Abstract: The present study inves gates the role of tradi onal community Luzia (CL) and the rural se lement "Banco da Terra" (BT) (Mato Grosso State, Brazil) in on farm conserva on of cassava, through socioeconomic census, ethnobotanical survey, iden fi ca on of local varie es and par cipant observa on. In CL was found higher ethnobotanical knowledge, although BT has presented a higher income (39 BT and 30 CL) and diversity (H' = 3.24 BT and 3.01 CL). The low similarity between collec ons reveal the complementarity of areas in the on farm maintenance of the agrobiodiversity. Key words: rural se lement; tradi onal community; agrobiodiversity. Résumé: La présente étude a porté sur le rôle de la communauté tradi onnelle Luzia (CL) et l'assentamento « Banco da Terra » (BT) (Mato Grosso, Brésil) dans la conserva on on farm de manioc, par le biais de recensement socio-économique, la collecte ethnobotanique, l'identification des variétés locales et l'observation par cipante. À la CL a été trouvé la plupart des connaissances ethnobotaniques, bien que le BT a eu une plus grande richesse (39 BT et 30 CL) et une diversité (H' = 3,24 BT et 3,01 CL). La faible similitude entre les collec ons révèle la complémentarité entre les locaux pour la conserva on on farm de l'agrobiodiversité. Mots-clés: assentamento; communauté tradi onnelle; agrobiodiversité. Resumen: El presente estudio inves gó el papel de la comunidad tradicional Luzia (CL) y del asentamiento rural "Banco de la Tierra" (BT) (Estado de Mato Grosso, Brasil) en la conservación on farm de yuca, a través de censo socioeconómico, levantamiento etnobotánico, iden fi cación de las variedades locales y observación par cipante. En la CL se encontró mayor conocimiento etnobotánico, aunque el BT presentó mayor riqueza (39 BT y 30 CL) y diversidad (H' = 3,24 BT e 3,01 CL). La baja similitud entre los acervos revela la complementariedad dos lugares en la manutención on farm de la agrobiodiversidad.

How are legal matters related to the access of traditional knowledge being considered in the scope of ethnobotany publications in Brazil?

Legal measures, such as the use of free or prior and informed consent, return of research results to communities (which can be understood as "sharing of benefits, " according to Brazilian legislation), and research authorization by governmental bodies, are mentioned and regulated in various documents, either governmental or specific, within the area of ethnobiology. This study aims to explore how these matters are considered in the scope of published ethnobotany articles in Brazil, as well as whether the creation of the Provisional Measure 2.186-16/2001 has contributed to the national advance of these matters. The methodology comprised a literature review of articles focusing on medicinal and food plant resources in the prominent Brazilian journals which publish ethnobotany studies. From 137 articles analyzed, 8 mentioned the return of research results to the community; 21 explicitly cited the use of free or prior and informed consent; and 13 mentioned the authorization of governmental bodies. We expect that the present study will contribute to the debate regarding the necessity of reformulation of the current system, which would guarantee a more effective rapport between the government, researchers, local communities, and society and contribute to the development of ethnobotany in Brazil.
