“…Other research aimed to study local factors of resilience to the threat of rising international prices and the responses of rural households [16], such as studying the behaviour of food supply to institutional markets through family farming, seeking to compare the behaviour of the national market with the international market for basic food products [17,18]. Recent literature shows interest on the objectives of public policies towards food security in Cabo Verde [19]. At the environmental level, noteworthy studies related to combating desertification, based on soil and water management [20,21].…”

This study aims to analyse the role and contribution of small farms and small food businesses on the food system and food security. Drawing on a conceptual framework, methodology, and data from the EU H2020 ‘SALSA-Small farms, small food businesses and sustainable food and nutrition security’ project hereafter referred as SALSA project, this issue has been analysed in relation to four staple products (tomato, chicken, maize, and banana) in Santiago Island (Cabo Verde). The study follows a regional approach based on a detailed analysis of the territorial food systems and of the production/consumption balance of those staple products. The results show that the subsystems of production, processing, distribution, and consumption are different in the different food systems map for the four staple products, with complex and diversified interrelationships between small farms and related small businesses linking with various markets and all kinds of actors. Moreover, the evidence shows that small farms, in conjunction with small food businesses, are crucial to national food security in Santiago Island. The small farm is fundamental for greater food availability produced in the region, and the small food business is a key component playing a very important role by ensuring the stability of supply, being primarily responsible for establishing relationships to population centres.

“…As versões originais foram adaptadas às condições e à oferta de leite nas diferentes bacias leiteiras do país, e foram se adequando as preferências do consumidor brasileiro de cada região (Abiq, 2019). As condições de qualidade e sanidade dos alimentos irão refletir na área social, de doenças transmissíveis ao homem por alimentos, ou ainda a perda de suas características, gerando assim rejeição do produto e causando prejuízos financeiros (Oie, 2019).…”

As bactérias aeróbias psicrófilas possuem temperatura ótima de crescimento em 15°C. Sendo estas relacionadas à deterioração de produtos processados cárneos e lácteos conservados em baixas temperaturas. Dessa forma, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os parâmetros microbiológicos de bactérias psicrófilas e bolores e leveduras em queijos e presuntos comercializados no município de Imperatriz - MA. Fez-se a análise microbiológica de amostras de queijo coalho e presunto cozido, fazendo-se a contagem de bactérias psicrófilas em placas (método spread-plate) e contagem de bolores e leveduras. As amostras de presunto cozido apresentaram um valor médio de contagem de bactérias psicrófilas de 1,4x104 UFC/g e contagem média de bolores e leveduras de 1,7x104 UFC/g de alimento. Em relação às amostras de queijo coalho, foi obtida uma média de 3,6x10⁴ UFC/g de contagem de bactérias psicrófilas e 1,3x10² UFC/g para a contagem de bolores e leveduras. Os resultados obtidos indicam que as amostras encontravam-se em condições precárias de higiene e armazenamento. É importante ressaltar também que a contaminação por esses microrganismos resulta em alterações sensoriais nos alimentos e diminuição da vida de prateleira.

“…In addition to this, the financial resources for these investments have also become scarce. A solution for assuring future development in this setting could take into account the approach carried by Japan after the Second World War in their rebuilding of the industry which was focused on quality alongside other public policy measures [3,4].…”

Hybrid Conceptual Model for Assessing Quality, Production and Satisfaction (SQual4Agri), in Agricultural Production Units, in Cape Verde

In Cape Verde, small family farming production suffers continuously from limited essential resources such as water and soil for a steady development. This situation is further aggravated by the lack of financial resources. We have developed a hybrid and multidimensional conceptual model for improvement of those small farming units by bringing together concepts of quality management, farmers’ satisfaction evaluation and production capabilities. The model we have built was the result of an inquiry based on Focus Group study with 15 farmers and it was carried out in 2019. We name the model as SQual4Agri and this is a step toward improvement in small family based agricultural organization, namely in productivity, responsibility sharing, communication and quality management.
