| Resumo: | In recent decades, the indiscriminate use of pesticides in food production has been causing
growing concern in many parts of the world. In opposition to hegemonic development based
on chemical-dependent monoculture, agroecology stimulates the cultivation without the use of
chemical substances and based on the principles of sustainability, aiming at an environmentally
correct, socially just and economically viable production. Thus, the productive pattern can
define significant changes in the environmental context, and may influence the farmer's
relationship with the land, both in terms of the elaboration of its history, as well as in the
construction of identity ties and the production of subjectivities. In this perspective, the
relationship with the place can play an important role in the way the rural producer can be
emotionally connected to his land and the community to which he belongs, serving as a relevant
means of understanding the practices of care and preservation of nature. In view of this, this
research has a general objective to investigate the nature of the relationship with the place, from
the experiences of agroecological producers of a rural community located in the rural zone of
the state of Rio Grande do Norte. For this, a qualitative, ethnographic-inspired approach was
adopted, whose data were constructed through participant observation and semi-structured
interviews. The constructed corpus was analyzed based on the analysis of thematic content, of
interpretative logic, using the aid of the software ATLAS.ti. The results of the study
demonstrate different aspects of the farmers' relationship with the place, revealing a
multidimensional link formed by various forms of relations of the investigated participants.
These, in turn, came to be characterized by particular types of appropriations (social, physical,
territorial, labor and nature), which depended on the life trajectories, changes in the
environment and established socioeconomic and environmental relations. Different positions
were also observed in the ways of being, working and living, impelling new forms of relation
and (re) signification of the place, materialized in liking to live and in the desire to remain living
in the place. The research deals with the theme beyond the disciplinary boundaries, presenting
the contribution of Environmental Psychology so that new perspectives are thrown into the
discussion about the rural context and new reflections are raised towards a more sustainable
agricultural development. |
