The research took place in two stages: the first, analysis of eighty-one productive projects and eighty-one reports prepared by the Minas Gerais-EMATER / Minas Gerais Technical Assistance and Rural Extension Company. The main structured activities were poultry and pig farming with the majority of farmers joining the program applying financial and technical resources made available.
