RESUMO:
There are some organic and agroecological agriculture initiatives in the Discovery Coast region, although data on their scope, social, environmental and economic aspects are scarce. This work developed an Agroecological Cartography, aiming to characterize and spatialize the agroecological production units certified in a participatory manner, on the Discovery Coast. First, an analysis was carried out on organic production in the State of Bahia, by Identity Territories, based on data from the National Register of Organic Producers, observing the spatio-temporal series from 2014 to 2020 and the types of certifying entities acting. It was found that organic production in Bahia grew a lot, having had strong adherence to the Social Control Mechanisms from 2015 and to the Participatory Guarantee Systems, from 2017. On the Discovery Coast, only three municipalities have certified organic producers: Belmonte, with two records associated with organic certification by business audit; and, Porto Seguro and Santa Cruz Cabrália, which concentrate agroecological production certified in a participatory manner. The second article consists of an integrative literature review on the term “Agroecological Cartography”, and a theoretical-methodological proposal for it, based on the literature on environmental planning. The integrative review indicated that there was still no theoretical-methodological proposition on terminology. The proposal interprets agroecological cartography as an instrument or tool for environmental planning, following methodological precepts associated with this process. Considering this, in the third article, the application of agroecological cartography on the Discovery Coast was carried out following the steps proposed: social articulation, definition of resources, delimitation of the unit of analysis, delimitation of the area of influence, data collection, preparation of maps and publication of maps. The results show that the areas visited add up to 21 hectares of certified agroecological area and that the properties analyzed are very close to important forest fragments of the Atlantic Forest, with numerous springs and water bodies in their surroundings; through the survey of social, ecological and economic indicators, several ecosystem services favored by agroecological production were verified, showing a high level of sustainability of these productive units. Cartographic production favored a better understanding of the relationship of the units of analysis with UC's, springs, water bodies, indigenous lands, rural settlements and other elements of the territory, which should collaborate with taking actions in regional environmental planning. It was concluded that regional socio-environmental development for the agroecological transition depends on long-term projects and even more accurate studies on local organic and agroecological production. Institutions that finance projects in the region should focus their efforts on Agroecological Rural Technical Assistance for family farming, as well as on scientific research aimed at monitoring the diversity of fauna, vegetation, as well as the climate and other elements associated with the sustainable agroecosystems of the Discovery Coast.
