Desafios das práticas agroecológicas no contexto do associativismo em hortas comunitárias no município de Sete Lagoas – MG

Urban Farm DB summary

This empirical work, based on participatory research, analyzed the social relations between producers of the Vapabucu community garden in Sete Lagoas, Brazil, and municipal public support organs. Research results indicate that while agroecological knowledge has advanced significantly in the technical dimension of agronomic production, the social relations among producers still show contradictions inherent to agroecological assumptions.
