NUTRICIONAL EMERGENCE OF INSTITUTIONAL MARKETS IN BRAZILIAN RURAL AREAS: FAMILY FARMING AND FOOD AND NUTRITIONAL SAFETY/A EMERGENCIA DOS MERCADOS INSTITUCIONAIS NO ESPACO RURAL BRASILEIRO: AGRICULTURA FAMILIAR E SEGURANCA ALIMENTAR E

The present paper analyzes the chief contributions from institutional markets generated to Brazilian family farmers and, by contrast, presents the obstacles that hinder their access or permanence in these markets. For such, readings were made of works that address the theme, and interviews were performed with different social agents responsible for the operationalization of programs like PAA, PNAE and Sao Paulo Program for Social Interest Farming (PPAIS) in Dracena municipality, in Sao Paulo state west region. Based on analyses made, it was concluded that such programs have great potential to yield sustainable rural development actions in Brazilian countryside and ensure food and nutritional safety of needy populations. For such, public authorities should adopt measures to minimize issues that limit family famers' access to and/or permanence in programs oriented to family farming.
