Abstract

Agriculture is one of the main Brazilian economic activities. There are several types of agriculture being practiced in the country, from the most rudimentary to the most technological. In this paper, some aspects related to family agriculture and its production in Brazilian regions will be presented in general. However, this work will have a special focus on the Northeast region, highlighting the difficulties and the way to overcome them. This region is characterized mainly by the semi-arid climate, predominant in the northeastern backlands, whose high temperatures cause long periods of drought and bring suffering to the population living in the region. Primitive cultivation practices limit their production, however in recent years, the implementation of public policies and, consequently, change of mind, seek to overcome years of delay, aiming at the creation of opportunities and possibilities for economic development.
