Os projetos públicos voltados ao empreendedorismo podem auxiliar e mudar a vida das pessoas de baixa renda e o desenvolvimento econômico da cidade. O lócus de investigação foi constituído pela praça de alimentação, construída pelo Poder Público, para dimensão do empreendedorismo na cidade de Santa Cruz do Capibaribe PE, que investiu recursos, criando renda e oportunidades de emprego e de negócio. Para tanto, constatou-se que financiamentos voltados para pessoas de baixa renda favorecem o crescimento do Arranjo Produtivo Local (APL) e agregam benefícios imensuráveis e desenvolvem renda para as partes envolvidas, tanto quanto para a sociedade, que ganha, desta forma, benefícios imensuráveis. Palavras-chave: Mudanças. Administração Empresarial. Poder Público. AbstractThe public projects focusing on entrepreneurship can help and change the low-income people’s lives and the city’s economic development.

Resumo Este trabalho foi motivado pela necessidade de refletir a importância da sustentabilidade em contexto empresarial, assim como, direcionar estudos para o setor da indústria têxtil que vem se destacando em cenário nacional. Assim sendo, buscou-se como pergunta norteadora qual a importância destinada para sustentabilidade nas atividades da indústria têxtil da cidade de Toritama/PE? Desta forma, estabeleceu-se como objetivo geral, analisar a importância da sustentabilidade do setor da indústria têxtil da cidade de Toritama/PE. Diante disso, a pesquisa contornou-se de forma bibliográfica para gerar resultados para compreensão do tema em estudo. Pertinente a isso, os resultados alcançados mostram que a sustentabilidade propõe o uso econômico dos recursos naturais subordinados a proteção do meio ambiente para que exista o uso consciente dos recursos naturais para garantir a existência da natureza, saúde aos seres e permanência da vida. Contudo, a existência do desenvolvimento econômico, assim como o setor têxtil, deve estabelecer organizações em seus processos produtivos e atividades de consumo, tendo em vista que a sustentabilidade é o alicerce que sustenta alternativas de mudanças positivas, seja no contexto de sobrevivência humana ou econômica.

AbstractThis work was motivated by the need to reflect on the importance of sustainability in a business context, as well as, direct studies to the textile industry sector that has been standing out on the national scene. Thus, it was sought as a guiding question what is the importance attached to sustainability in the activities of the textile industry in the city of Toritama/PE? Thus, it was established as a general objective to analyze the importance of sustainability in the textile industry sector of the city of Toritama/PE. In view of this, the research went around in a bibliographic way to generate results for understanding the subject under study. Pertinent to this, the results achieved show that sustainability proposes the economic use of natural resources subordinated to environmental protection so that there is a conscious use of natural resources to ensure the existence of nature, health to beings and permanence of life. However, the existence of economic development, as well as the textile sector, must establish organizations in their production processes and consumption activities, bearing in mind that sustainability is the foundation that supports alternatives for positive changes, whether in the context of human or economic survival.

Aims Soil quality index shed light on soil health and its capacity to sustain high primary production. It also can assist decision-making in farming systems by integrating this valuable product into soil management planning. However, the currently existing models are based on rather local data, and thus, there is a lack of predictive tools to monitor soil quality. Methods We characterized soil chemical properties, and plant biomass production during 6 years in field conditions at a tropical soil. Results Our findings suggest that: 1) a consecutive green manure practice without any input of fertilizers after 6 years reduced soil quality in tropical savanna climate conditions; and 2) there are three groups of green manure considering soil quality reduction, G1 (low soil quality reduction) that comprises C. ochroleuca and N. wightii, G2 (medium soil quality reduction) that comprises B. decumbens, P. glaucum, and C. juncea, and G3 (high soil quality reduction) that comprises M. pruriens, C. ensiformis, C. spectabilis, D. lablab, and S. aterrimum. Conclusions This study highlights the importance to consider predictive models as a tool to be used in soil management. Our study also provides a deeper view about the use of green manure, and the importance to avoid the use of green manure with traits that decrease soil quality.
