ResumoThis paper presents preliminary thoughts about a specific experience on the participatory research methodology developed together with a rural settled community located in Pontal do Paranapanema (in the State of Sao Paulo). The work is currently in progress, so that the DPR - Diagnostico Rapido Participativo (Concise Results from a Participatory Research) methodology was applied to a group of settled people in the Primavera settlement (Associacao Renascer de Produtores Rurais) and to another group in the Tupaciretan settlement (Associacao dos Produtores Rurais do Assentamento Tupaciretan). Although the available material is partially accomplished, some important evidences on the environment reality of the settlements and the community perception can be presented. It was noticed that the environmental problems have an effect on several aspects of the settled people's lives, such as the question regarding pasture-based milk production that is affected by low-quality pastures. Therefore, the agricultural technician aid is seen as a way to improve the environment issues or as problems-solving when challenging difficulties in production. Keywords: Rural Settlements; Participatory Research; Environmental Issue.
