RESUMO:

 

With the growing process of urbanization, the practice of Urban Agriculture (AU)

has been gaining prominence on the national scene, especially in large cities

like Rio de Janeiro, due to its capacity to produce food, improve the quality of

life and promote food and nutritional sovereignty and security (SAN) of urban

populations. Another important factor is the generation of work and income for

 

families through the commercialization of surplus production. The most used

commercialization channel in the AU is the direct sale in fairs. The possibility of

marketing food, especially in organic/agroecological fairs, values and stimulates

the work of urban farmers, invisible to public authorities. The objective of the

research was to characterize the profile of urban farmers and above all, to

understand the importance of fairs for marketing and strengthening AU in the

municipality of Rio de Janeiro. To this end, interview and participatory

observation techniques were chosen for data collection. The results found

demonstrate the role of women in the AU, representing 73.3% of those

interviewed, the concentration of farmers between 50 and 69 years of age and

family history in agriculture, 100% of those interviewed are children/children of

farmers. It was found that 66.7% of the interviewees have another source of

income and that the farmer who has no other source of income, sells the food in

more than one place. Thus, it can be inferred that those farmers who market in

more than one place, manage through the AU to generate income for the

family's livelihood.
