Abstract

The objective of this paper is to propose a typology for the Economic Organizations of Family Agriculture (OEAFs) in Brazil. From the SIES database a Multiple Factor Analysis was proposed to find the possible types of OEAFs. Four Types were determined. Subsequently, logistic regressions were made in order to verify which socioeconomic and regional characteristics were most related to each of the four types found. The results suggest that Type 1 are OEAFs from family farming, from rural areas, from less complex managerial organization and from poorer regions of Brazil. Type 2 includes younger OEAFs, composed of cooperatives as well as less developed regions of the country. Type 3 is characterized by cooperatives, Enterprises from Agrarian Reform, and the northern region of the country. And, finally, Type 4 is marked by even younger OEAFs, Business Agriculture, non-rural activities and located in the most dynamic regions of the country.
