Resumo

The consumption of healthy foods is essential for human nutrition and quality of life. Thus, family farming is responsible for the production of organic food, since the people who live in urban centers depend on this sustainable production. In addition to this, the spatial focus of the research is located on the sertanejo surface, in the northeastern semi-arid region. The community of São Domingos is located 25 km from the municipality of Sobral-Ceará. The objective of the study is to characterize the agroecological systems of consumption and production (PAIS and Mandala) and to present their multiple uses, and commercial flows in the sale of cultivated products. It is concluded that agroecological systems are a source of income that promotes the local economy and helps in the healthy diet of people who consume the cultivated fruits.
