RESUMO:

The present study aimed to make a diagnosis and propose solutions to promote organic agriculture in the regions Northeastern of Para and Metropolitan of Belém. A sustainability evaluation was carried out with the application of the IDEA method at organic production systems of the Pará Orgânico Association. The IDEA method was developed by the French Ministry of Agriculture in collaboration with research, extension and teaching institutions. It proposes the evaluation of sustainability through a matrix of 41 indicators, grouped into 10 components, which comprise three dimensions: agro-environmental (19 indicators), territorial (16) and economic (6). The combination of the values of the indicators allows measuring the sustainability of each dimension, which can vary from zero to 100 points. The structure of the method defines that the sustainability of the production system is limited by the dimension that presents the lowest score. The conceptual model involves aspects of the natural, social and human sciences that, by adapting some indicators to the reality of local agroecosystems, allows the quantitative measurement of sustainability. Eleven Family Production Units were evaluated at nine municipalities in the State of Pará. In these units, the IDEA method was applied in January 2018 through interviews conducted in loco. At the evaluations, limitations were observed to the potential of the region as an important producer of vegetables and organic fruits. These limitations include lack of local inputs and organization of the association. According to the results, the sustainability of the studied region is limited by the economic dimension, which presented an average score of only 40%. In addition, the socio-territorial dimension can also be improved, since, although it is not the limiting factor at the time, it presented a score of only 50%. On the other hand, the agro-environmental dimension presented a high score, above 70%. It should be noted that the scores obtained in all dimensions are above the lower limit of sustainability, which is 30%.
