Abstract

This study describes the analisis of the Brazilian School Feeding Program - PNAE (Brazilian abbreviation) in Cantuquiriguaçu territory, PR, carried out by the “Outreach Center of Territorial Development - NEDET (Brazilian abbreviation)”. In order to to elucidate the operationalization of this program, it was conducted a quantitative and qualitative data collection in the municipal education departaments of the territory and in local sources of federal government. It was also conducted interviews with the key actors of this process (farmers, nutritionists, school lunch cook, municipal autorities). It identified difficulties in purchasing 30% of the products produced by family farming in some municipalities. However, through a historical analysis, it is noticed a gradual improvement in the operationalization of it. It is concluded that the acceptance of products from family farming is important, but he lack of training for cooksas well as the lack of productive and technical assistance limit its effectiveness. It is also concluded that the small number of farmers accessing the program may cause difficulties in implementing sustainable rural development at the local level.
