KARAM, Karen Follador. A mulher na agricultura orgânica e em novas ruralidades. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2004, vol.12, n.01, pp.303-320. ISSN 1806-9584.

The main pretension in this work is to get to know and to recognize the role of the woman farmer in the new productive processes that update the place of the rural in the contemporary societies. The starting point is the organic farming system. One interests to identify the strategies adopted by the family farming for increasing and supporting ways of living the rural world. At the same time, one interests to identify the possibilities to make the rural space - in the context of the modern societies - visible. In this context, one researched the organic farming in the urban area of Curitiba (RMC). One analyzed who are the farmers involved in the process, and inside of it, one tried to indicate what is the role of the woman farmer, from the productive process to the necessary sociability to keep an “alive rural world” where the organic farming appears as a strategy.

Keywords : Woman Farmer; Rurality; Organic Farming.
