We studied the specific case of the Settlement Gloria Stone High - RS. Methodology was used in the report of the experience of the process of biodynamic wheat in 2010, and made the analysis of collective forms of activities related to the mill, refers to the PRA of the settlement and after Glory, questionnaires were applied to settlers who planted wheat in 2010 in that settlement. The settlers decided to grow wheat at the beginning of the year, and half of the year, and had an interest in flour, income and inputs, and the main reason was the presence of the mill. The greatest difficulty was in relation to lack of access to means of production, which caused delay in the execution of sowing wheat crop, despite planning have been done six months in advance. It is understood that at the beginning, to be sought to facilitate beneficiary access to basic means of production for sowing.
