description | The main focus of this article is to understand the importance of women in the agroecological militancy, emphasizing, his performances and influence in the agroecological fairs, performed in the city of Ilhéus, Bahia State, Brazil. Despite this significant and increasing actuation, the women agroecological face a number of difficulties in terms of the recognition of their work of food production, difficulty in gaining access to land and/or the direct marketing of products plus labor activities in the domestic space. We recorded an exploitation on the part of consumers to this modality of marketing of organic agriculture on the part of women and generating a greater customer loyalty, with increased reliability due to have been produced and marketed by women, denoting values of quality of life and healthy food. Is clear the importance of these fairs as spaces for the generation of employment and income, exchange of knowledge, culture appreciation of the field and of the woman, deconstruct ideologies, attitudes and mentalities discriminatory and prejudiced governing, in general, the social structure in Bahia. |
