O Programa Nacional de Fortalecimento da Agricultura Familiar – PRONAF – foi criado com objetivo de atender aos produtores rurais da agricultura familiar, historicamente com dificuldades de acesso ao crédito rural. Desde a sua criação, em meados da década de 1990, esse programa passou por diversas transformações.

Embora esse programa represente uma grande vitória, ao incluir a agricultura familiar de maneira específica na pauta das políticas públicas de fomento à produção no Brasil e de apresentar avanços importantes ao longo do tempo, diversas análises indicam, ainda, a existência de uma série de gargalos que dificultam a aplicação de seus recursos.

Effects of partial throughfall exclusion on the phenology of Coussarea racemosa (Rubiaceae) in an east-central Amazon rainforest

Severe droughts may alter the reproductive phenology of tropical tree species, but our understanding of these effects has been hampered by confounded variation in drought, light and other factors during natural drought events. We used a large-scale experimental reduction of throughfall in an easterncentral Amazon forest to study the phenological response to drought of an abundant subcanopy tree, Coussarea racemosa. We hypothesized that drought would alter the production and the timing of reproduction, as well as the number of viable fruits.

Brazil's "Low-Carbon Agriculture" Program: Barries to implementation

Brazil launched the “Low-Carbon Agriculture” Plan and a special line of credit: the ABC Program. However, the program has been slow in getting off the ground. To understand why, the Amazon Environmental Research Institute (IPAM) conducted more than forty interviews with members of various producer, cooperative, association and industry groups, as well as the government.
