The object of study is the rural education proposed by Sud Mennucci (1892 - 1948) for the state of São Paulo, from 1920 to 1948. The study examined the theme as an educational relationship whose objectives were to capture the social need of the time and to understand the social functions of rural teaching. The sources of the research were those written in books, conferences, newspaper articles and decrees issued by him, when he was Director General of Education. The methodology followed the thematic analysis based on the historical-critical theory through the singular/universal category, with thematic axes the didactic work, the ruralization of teaching and the small farming. Such proposal fulfilled only part of the planned social function, but contributed to innovation and the relative universalization of rural education.
Keywords : didactic work’s organization; rural education; little tillage; educational relation.
