Abstract

ABSTRACT Unlike conventional production means, agroecology has been proving to be an open space for feminine prominence. The aim of this study is to show how a group of women from the countryside of RS has managed to take a significant share in family agroecological production, overcoming gender, family, and social conflicts. Analyses and discussions were guided by a qualitative approach, substantiated by both theoretical and empirical inputs, with semi-structured interviews and participatory observations reported in field journals, between 2016 and 2017. By the end, women involved in this process were observed to have had multiple personal achievements, such as: community interaction; dissemination of traditional knowledge; insertion in the professional market; and gender equality.
