Para isso, elencou-se subtítulos que trouxesse para o debate a origem e o conceito de sociedade, de estado, da importância da coletividade, dos problemas sociais, e das políticas públicas, a partir das análises conceituais. A compreensão desses conceitos expostos acima pode permitir, ao analista melhor, a compreensão do problema para o qual a política pública foi desenvolvida.

The research focuses on discussing the dynamics between agroecology and family farming in the Brazilian semiarid region. Family plays a significant part in the production of food on the Brazilian territory, contributing to its socioeconomic development, as it generates jobs, contributes to the local economy and diversifies production while contributing to lessen environmental impacts. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the agroecological discourse and practical strategies used in family farming and its role in the socioeconomic development of the Brazilian Semiarid region, by means of a systematic literature review. The works retained center on the following themes: public policies, land management and territoriality, cultivated varieties, and the issues surrounding water usage.

This study evaluates the effect of a low-cost biodegradable coating formulated with potato starch, rice starch, cassava starch, and gelatin on the postharvest quality of ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango. The experimental design was completely randomized, arranged in a 7x6 factorial scheme with four replications per treatment. The data were subjected to analysis of variance using the Tukey test at 5% probability. After coating, the fruits were stored under ambient conditions (25 ± 3 ºC and 65 ± 5% RH) for 10 days, with analysis every two days. The variables analyzed were: fruit firmness, weight loss, total soluble solids, total titratable acidity, total soluble solids/titratable acidity ratio, delta absorbance (DA) index, colorimetric analysis of the peel and pulp, and ascorbic acid content. The application of biodegradable coatings did not extend the shelf life of ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango during storage.
