Estudo sobre a circulação de sementes e propágulos no assentamento rural XII de outubro, Mogi Mirim, SP

Atualmente, a grande variedade de plantas domesticadas está diminuindo com a disseminação da moderna agricultura comercial, caracterizada pelos seus cultivos geneticamente homogêneos com emprego maciço de insumos. Em contraste, agricultores mais tradicionais procuram manter a heterogeneidade de seus campos cultivando muitas espécies e variedades, representando uma significativa importância para a conservação do patrimônio genético das espécies agrícolas. Entre estes agricultores é comum ocorrer a circulação das sementes e propágulos das variedades. Entretanto, muitos destes agricultores, mais tradicionais, migraram para assentamentos rurais, trazendo com eles uma grande diversidade de plantas. Desta forma, este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a dinâmica de circulação de sementes e propágulos de plantas alimentares que ocorre entre as famílias do Assentamento Rural XII de Outubro em Moji Mirim - SP, a partir de uma amostra de agricultores oriundos de áreas de agricultura de subsistência. Tais agricultores foram localizados com base no estudo “Semeando sementes, cultivando cultura: As plantas alimentares e a sua importância para a vida dos agricultores do Assentamento XII de Outubro, Moji Mirim, SP” realizado em 2005 pela mestranda Mirella Cultrera. No presente estudo foram realizadas visitas periódicas, nas quais entrevistas não estruturadas foram feitas para obter a história de vida, entrevista semi-estruturadas para obter as informações sobre a dinâmica de circulação das sementes e propágulos, e, por fim, entrevistas estruturadas para adquirir os dados socioeconômicos. Neste trabalho foram levantadas no total 139 variedades de cultivos alimentares (55 espécies pertencentes a 28 famílias botânicas), sendo 54% delas oriundas de Minas Gerais. O número de variedades cultivadas por ...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

A força de trabalho jovem e a Fundação Mirim em Presidente Prudente/SP

This paper have to objective understand the dynamics of the insertion of a portion of the prudentinos young at work and the respective framing assigned to them by the Foundation of Presidente Prudente Mirim / SP. In the course of this research, we evaluate the issue, through a quantitative survey and qualitative survey of the entity as well as demographic information query the database of public agencies that, shielded by the literature of the subject of the work, explain some features of reality these young people, for example, the conditions they face in search of his achievement as a worker in the learning situation

Chuva, vulnerabilidade social e percepção do risco na cidade de São Paulo: impactos de eventos extremos nos bairros da Freguesia do Ó e do M’Boi Mirim

The city of São Paulo has, since the beginning of the expansion of its urban sprawl, represented relations of conflicts and contradictions between society and nature. Once the way society relates to nature is defined by how the social agents themselves correlate in certain social and historical contexts, the ways of interaction between the social and natural elements will be different according to the forms of production and appropriation of the urban space. Even more evident is the case of the great national metropolis, given its demographic dimensions and historical conditions, the process of urban expansion follows a logic where spaces of better quality for housing are occupied by those of better financial conditions. Thus, although there are exceptions, the poorest people live in places less desirable, in less resilient environments of lower environmental quality, relating to nature and its phenomena with greater risks. These risks are reflected here as recurring flooding, mudslides and landslides for which the rain is constantly blamed. So we have a situation where it is clear that a weather phenomenon differently interacts with different social groups. In this context, the study was conducted to compare extreme events occurred in two regions of São Paulo: the Freguesia do O, in the north side, and M'Boi Mirim, in the south side. Both are regions with large number of risk areas and are in the same urban climate unit. However, they present different conditions of social vulnerability. With the investigation of each extreme rain event occurred in the two regions, in the period of 2000-2010, supplemented by field research, we tried to observe how far the rain, with his intensity and volume, can, in fact, be related to the accidents.

Análise de condicionantes geológico-geotécnicos para o rompimento de pequenas e médias barragens de terra: estudo de caso na bacia do rio Jaguari Mirim no município de São João da Boa Vista, SP

The act of containing water is one of the most practiced by the civilizations along history, in the will to increase the offer of water to many uses. The raise of environmental worries surround many human activities has given a big attention to dams. Indeed, the environmental consequences about dams are proporcional to their size, what gives to the big dams a more detailed Project and a bigger political concerning that increases the built, estability and maintenance of them. Then, the projects of medium and small dams are weak, limitaded to handbooks, textbooks and empirical recommendations, while the constructions of small dams are growing everytime more. With that being said, the present work intends to analise the geological and geotechnical conditionants that can cause break of small earth dams by making a case study in the Jaguari Mirim Watershed, located in the city of São João da Boa Vista (SP), and can be used to encourage the concern with small dams. In the area of study were identificaded, from satellite images, 248 dams. The map of physiographical compartmentalization defined by Pilachevsky (2013) was used to define the locations in the study área that would have bigger risk to the break of dams. Then, 9 of this dams were analised in field research, using references made by Cerri, Reis e Giordano (2011) and the risk of the analised dams were defined. A study about this type of structure is highly necessary to avoid big damages. An analysis of the geological and geotechnical conditionants that can cause break of dams guides the project in a way to avoid adverse consequences, especially when integrated with locacional conditions observed in the place of the dam’s building

Qualidade ambiental dos fragmentos florestais na Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Jundiaí-Mirim entre 1972 e 2013

The location of Jundiai-Mirim river basin, close to large urban centers and industrial parks, has contributed to the appreciation of their lands. Consequently, the region has an intense process of urbanization that resulted in an increasing environmental disturbance in the forest areas. Given the need to preserve existing natural vegetation, because the watershed is the source of water used to supply Jundiai, SP, this study evaluated changes in the environmental quality of the watershed forest fragments between 1972 and 2013. The environment quality was determined by evaluating nine indicators of environmental disturbance, obtained by techniques of Geoprocessing and integrated by Multicriteria Analysis. The results showed a constant tendency of deteriorating the environmental quality of natural vegetation between 1972 and 2013, attributed to the intense process of occupation of the watershed. It is concluded that: (a) urbanization and deforestation of natural vegetation were primarily responsible for changes in environmental quality; (b) there is a need to create public policies to preserve the natural vegetation in the watershed.

Manutenção da diversidade agrícola em assentamentos rurais: um estudo de caso em Moji-Mirim - SP, Brasil

Maintenance of agricultural diversity in rural settlements – a case study in Moji-Mirim, São Paulo, Brazil. This paper investigated whether farmers, when established in rural settlements, keep some traditional features with regard to crops diversity and circulation of planting material. Its aims were to make an ethnobotanical survey of species and varieties and analyze the dinamics of seeds and propagules circulation. A total of 139 varieties of food crops (55 species/28 families) were found, being 87% of them intended for self-consumption; 54% of varieties come from Minas Gerais, home state of most respondents. The number of varieties grown per household ranged from 17 to 54. The informal and free circulation of planting material is the most important way of acquisition. The circulation network is very active, showing a potential for the management of crops diversity, with emphasis on the contribution of settlers to the maintenance and valorization of traditional varieties.
