Resumo
This study analyzes the process of commodification of the seed, which goes from a regenerative resource, surrounded by traditional knowledge and part of sustainable ecosystems, to the central commodity of agribusiness. This process involves the technological models of agriculture, the process of neoliberal globalization, reductionist science, and legal systems that legitimize only this kind of knowledge as valid. The core of this dissertation is analyzing whether the process of commodification of the seed generates risks to socioenvironmental and agrifood rights and, if so, whether it is possible to minimize them. In this sense, a hypothesis is verified that an agricultural modernization, using the commodified seed, is inserted in the world society and, therefore, produces risks for the biodiversity, the balanced environment, the adequate food, the food security and life of family farmers. Furthermore, the application of the precautionary principle, materialized in the implementation, as legal and development of databases, as a way of minimizing such risks is concluded. The present dissertation has as a theoretical framework the thought of Ulrich Beck, which discusses that the late modernization in which we live, in this work specifically focused on the agricultural field and the seed is situated in a world risk society whose risks represent the anticipations of potential catastrophes that lead to precautionary and preventive actions. The methodology employed is logical-deductive, keeping within itself the necessary cohesion and coherence with the fulcrum to the final objective: reflective answers and inquiries to deepen the study, thus seeking the contribution not only for the legal-academic community, but also a study that overflows to the existing agricultural practice in the country, because it still does not have a lot of specific doctrine on the subject.
