Family agriculture and agribusiness: expressions of the brazilian rural space in the geography textbook of elementary education II

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to reflect about family agriculture and agribusiness in the brazilian rural current context and how these themes are addressed in the scope of elementary education II. In order to reach the objective, a reflection on the subject was made considering the theoretical discussions and advances in academic and institutional political scope. Next, the approach of the theme in the chosen textbooks was analyzed. Thus, epistemological differences and the discourse on agribusiness and family agriculture were observed, and although the work addresses the inherent problems of the two forms of production present in the Brazilian field, in book B, the theme is treated in a more comprehensive and critical.
