RESUMO:

Family farming is the type of agricultural production with the largest number of rural establishments in Brazil and accounts for 70% of the food that comes to the table of the Brazilian family. The growing concern with the conservation of natural resources, food sovereignty, the health of farmers and consumers and the quality of life of the population promotes a search for agroecological and / or organic production. Among the problems faced by family farmers are difficulties in the management of production and their business, and partly because of the lack of accurate information on inputs, process losses, sales and real profit obtained. Furthermore, the generation of farmers has low levels of education, does not have management training or training in the use of information technology. In this sense, the objective of this work is to apply a set of performance indicators for family agriculture that is useful and easy to use, in order to assist farmers in controlling production, productivity, sustainability, sales and profit, so that they can accomplish the necessary decisions, aiming at the continuous improvement of this activity. For this, a bibliographical research was performed on performance indicators in the technical and scientific literature for family agriculture. Next, the participatory method of the Ergonomic Work Analysis - AET was used to apply the performance indicators in family farms of the "Zé Maria do Tomé Camp" in Limoeiro do Norte - CE, through the following steps : a) an exploratory study of the place chosen to carry out the study, with the purpose of knowing the sociodemographic and economic characteristics, the overall production operation, the commercialization of the products and the requirements of the activity in focus that the farmers b) presentation to family farmers of a set of indicators obtained from the bibliographical research to select the indicators of interest that could be used in their family farms, c) request to the family farmers, so that other possible indicators of interest that, by chance , were not included in the list; d) adaptation of AGROINDEX - system of performance indicators for family agriculture -, considering the indicators pointed out by the actors consulted; e) application, in 3 family farming properties of said Camp, of the system of performance indicators of family farming resulting from the previous stages. The following results were obtained regarding the Zé Maria do Tomé Camp: the characterization of the vegetal and animal production; the way in which the products are marketed; the strategies of water management, soil, seeds and agroecological techniques; characterization of the workforce; indicators on planted area, vegetal and animal production, vegetal and animal commercialization, pluviometry, fertilization and irrigation. Therefore that the system of performance indicators that has been applied is easy to use and useful and constitutes a tool that produces an important source of information, which assists in monitoring production, decision-making and production management family farming.
