Resumo
Plant extractivism is one of the oldest activities practiced by mankind. Currently its practice by
rural populations is based on the family workforce and has been encouraged by a variety of
institutions. In the Cerrado Territory, among the various non-timber forest products that can be
extracted, baru (Dipteryx alata Vog), a native species, has stood out due to its nutritional
characteristics. In Vila de Sagarana, district of the municipality of Arinos located in the northwest
of Minas Gerais, this product occurs in high concentrations and due to its market demand and
availability of occurrence in the village, it has been gaining prominence among local residents due
to income generation for families. Therefore, this research aims to understand the effects of the
baru extractive circuit on social and environmental relations in the territory of Sagarana, among
those involved in this activity of transforming baru into commodity. This is a qualitative study
whose data analysis was based on the interpretation of information collected in the field,
combining multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives, together with participatory
methods. The actors of this circuit were delineated, namely: collection area owner, collector, the
intermediary in the figure of wholesaler and wholesaler and finally gathered information from the
final consumer through one of the intermediary agents. In addition to these identified subjects, it
was noted that this activity generates socio-environmental conflicts in this territory, which are
structured or maintained according to the private ownership of land tenure, the appropriation of
natural resources and labor as factors of production and availability. of economic goods. Despite
the problematic of this activity, it presents to the collectors a strategy of social reproduction, which
evidences the peasants' (re) existence, making activities such as autonomy, knowledge exchange
and establishing baru territoriality in Sagarana through its relationship with nature. and the other
cultural dimensions.
