| The furniture industry of the Metropolitan Region of Belém provides many jobs opportunities and help to reduce the environmental impacts of sawmill, given that the shavings and wood residues of these firms are used as raw material. Factorial analysis was used to estimate the index of competitive performance (ICP) and to determine the competitive position of the firms in the furniture industry. The results showed that most of the furniture firms were located in an intermediate competitive level, which is due to the limiting factors such as lack of workforce, low technological level, difficult access to credit and low level of horizontal and vertical integration in the supply chain. The final results showed that only one, among the furniture firms, achieved... |

| A agricultura orgânica é uma atividade que visa promover a preservação do meio ambiente, respeitando a biodiversidade e as atividades biológicas do solo. Desta forma, esta atividade enfatiza o uso de práticas de manejo em oposição ao uso de agrotóxicos, assim fixando de modo mais definitivo o homem no campo. Acredita-se que esta atividade seja uma forma de produção ecologicamente sustentável, socialmente justa e economicamente viável em todas as escalas da produção. No Ceará a agricultura orgânica tem uma área plantada de 13.820 ha, espalhados em vários municípios, sendo a maior concentração na microrregião da Ibiapaba. Esse trabalho tem como objetivo geral analisar a sustentabilidade da agricultura orgânica familiar dos produtores associados à APOI... |

| The objective of this research was to analyze the impact of Ceará Irrigated Agriculture Program – PROCEAGRI on fruit crop in the State of Ceará, particularly, in the Agropolo Baixo Jaguaribe. The data used in this study was collecty by interviewing fruit producers in the County of Aracti, Limoeiro do Norte e Quixeré. All the counties, after 1998 (the year of implantation of the Program) had improvement in technology use and increase in productivity. In most of the cases, an important benefit was the generation of local job opportunities. It is suggested that the Government should provide incentives in the form of credit, technical assistance and provide marketing guarantee and improved substructure to attract agricultural industries for better use of... |

| Este estudo procurou analisar a floricultura no Estado do Ceará, enfocando a produção de helicônias nos principais municípios produtores do Estado, mais precisamente avaliando o nível tecnológico empregado na produção e a rentabilidade da atividade e competitividade, em termos de eficiência dos produtores. A pesquisa realizou-se por meio de coleta de dados primários obtidos de entrevistas diretas com produtores nos municípios que compõem as regiões metropolitana e maciço de Baturité, de acordo com o cadastro da Secretaria de Agricultura Irrigada-SEAGRI, no período de outubro de 2002. Na avaliação do nível tecnológico dividiu-se o sistema de produção de helicônia em sete tecnologias: propagação, uso dos solos, adubação, tratos culturais, cuidados... |

| The main objective of the study is to verify the impact of program of small agricultural credit on the quality of life of the benefited families in the state of Ceara. The data was obtained through the application of questionnaires to the benefited families in the county of Quixada. Table, graphic and descriptive analysis were used to describe the collected data. The t-student, Tukey test and Kruskall-Wallis test were used to compare the mean values of selected variables and proportions of benefited and non benefited families were used, respectively. The employment per hectare cultivated is higher on the properties having cattle breeding and hog production activities financed by the credit program. The main of income of benefited and non benefited families... |

| The objective of this study was to verify the evolution of economic indicators of the families, living in 27 communities, benefited by Rural Poverty Reduction Program in the state of Ceará. For this purpose, the years of 1998 (base year) and 2001 were selected. The information was obtained from the beneficiaries of projects such as water supply, rural electrification, agriculture mechanization and land reform. The results allowed to conclude that there was an improvement in living conditions, acquisition of durable goods and income level of population benefited by the Program. Also, comparison between per capita income of these families and rural population of the state was made. |

| Utilization of technology in agriculture makes it productive and promissing, contributing to its development. Investiments done by Govern of Ceará in agriculture have concentrate mainly on irrigated agriculture, through the agropoles, prevailing fruit-growing, banana being one of the chief crops. Banana crop performs an important role for cearense agriculture, however, it is generally characterized by low productivity, low technological level and large losses in production. The objective of this study was to measure the technological level of the irrigated banana crop in Agropole Cariri and to verify which are the factors conditioning the technological adoption. The calculated index showed that the technological index adopted in banana crop is classified... |

| This paper analyses the technological adoption process in culture of cashew from Ceará. To reach this objective a survey was made from producers located in Ceará. As for measuring the technological level of producers were analyzed variables related to the practices of the system of culture of cashew. Moreover, we estimated the coefficients of the variables that influence the likelihood of technology adoption by regression function Cumulative Distribution Logistics Standard (Logit). It was observed that the farms occupied by the in nature cashew has the best technology level, using the recommended 46.7%, while those occupied with cashew for nuts and juice use only 36.4 and 30.1%, respectively. The access to credit, the price of nuts and the peduncle were... |
