Sucessão geracional na agricultura familiar: perspectivas e ações de pessoas e instituições

Abstract

Agriculture becomes more relevant every day, thanks to its ability to feed the world. So changes and incentives for future generations in rural areas is a subject that should be more practiced. Therefore, this work aims to understand how succession processes are taking place in rural properties and how rural extension and development institutions are inserted in it. Also, it seeks to analyze the particularities that permeate the decisions and values of the actors in this process. It is important to understand how future successors and patriarchs prepare the succession process, since many families still do not discuss the future of the property. In addition, understand whether institutions are working to encourage future successors and how these activities are developed. It can be concluded that institutions understand the great importance of preparing discussions on family succession, but often the lack of resources, time and preparation prevents projects from being carried out to encourage future successors. During the work, the young people show that, over the years, the succession becomes interesting because the family properties are becoming profitable companies, the young people are characterized by seeking quality of life and independence together with the maximization of income and business.
