Abstract
The article analyzes the trajectories of rural producers in order to point out the elements that bring them closer to the reality of rural entrepreneurship. The article contributes to the perception of rural entrepreneurship as an auxiliary tool in the creation and distribution of wealth as well as to socioeconomic development. The qualitative approach methodology adopted for the study is based on multiple case studies and on semi-structured interviews to generate the data. Three entrepreneurial trajectories were analyzed in two Brazilian states: Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul. The restriction to take risks may demonstrate a less common characteristic among rural entrepreneurs. However, the break with traditional techniques and the innovation in production processes, elaboration and distribution of products stands out in the three cases. Finally, it is possible to identify the approximation of trajectories to the notion of entrepreneurship as a process that benefits from opportunities.
