Management of cooperatives for socioeconomic development in vila camburão in the municipality of alenquer, with emphasis on cumaru

The present article analyzed the cumaru almond (Dipteryxodorada) in the municipality of Alenquer-Pará. The primary information was obtained at Vila Camburão, by means of interviews with agents involved in commercialization and extraction. The secondary information was obtained through the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), as well as other sites focused on agribusiness and rural commerce. The information collected shows the great productive potential that the municipality presents faced the national scenario. It shows the municipality of Alenquer-Paráas an isolated leader due to the high quantity produced. All this production can bring diverse socioeconomic benefits in the places where the production and the extraction take place, in view of the sustainable management and the adequate commercialization in the places involved in the production and commerce of the almond. The data analysis of the IBGE-2016 research showed oscillations regarding the amount produced in recent years, which has been showing a decrease in the production of the almond in the municipality of Alenquer, thus threatening the high future production. This drop was due to several factors such as inadequate management, burning, illegal logging and lack of support for the extractive community. The proposed solution for large-scale production is the installation of cooperatives aimed at the production and the processing of cumaru almond. It would bring, not only an increase in production, but also an improvement in the quality of the products and, consequently, the aggregation of value in the commodity.
