Resumo
The present dissertation aims to investigate whether the national seed policy in the country
reproduces a colonial logic that hinders its achievement. For this, the first chapter sought to identify
the relationship between colonialism and the domination of nature through the general tendency
for global oligopolized control of food production, processing and distribution. We investigate how
domination and exploitation today remain through coloniality, an essential element of the modern
colonial world-system of reproduction of social practices and power that reinforce relations of
domination and exploitation, causing impacts through technology and concentration power in the
agrarian world. In the second chapter we address the seed situation in Brazil, treating traditional
seeds as an expression of Brazilian genetic and cultural heritage, its influence on the realization
of the human right to food and the risks of losing traditional knowledge due to a lack of awareness
of its value. The aim was to analyze the legal protection of seeds and the monopoly on seed
control, which tends to concentrate on the control of few corporations holding privileged positions
in social relations and power. And finally, in the third chapter, we investigated the relevance of
public policies as mechanisms and tools for development, as well as the importance of
encouraging the practice of research, development and production of traditional seeds as a way
to conserve and promote agrobiodiversity. A study on the National Policy on Agroecology and
Organic Production (Pnapo) was carried out, analyzing the relationship between the national seed
policy and the issue of underdevelopment in Brazil, verifying whether it has been used as a
mechanism to mitigate the effects of coloniality in the country.
