Abstract

The State of Rio Grande do Sul stands out, for decades, the national agricultural scenario, and even internationally for its high capacity anddiversity of agricultural production, among them, could not fail to highlight the flowers, the rose being the main flower grown and marketedin the state and national scenarios. In this sense, the climate being one of the main constraints to its cultivation, this study concerns to investigatethe perception of climate farmer roses, analyzing if the climatic conditions of Rio Grande do Sul have been favorable or unfavorableto the cultivation of roses. Were also interviewed technical people, whose purpose of crossing with the empirical scientific data collectedfrom the farmers. Were carried out fieldwork with questionnaires, and demonstrated the great knowledge by both technicians and farmers.What is striking is that both groups were asked the same questions of respondents, but in a different way, respecting your vocabulary, gettingin the end, similar responses, both in relation to the analysis of the plant and on the climate of Rio Grande do Sul. Overall, according tothe empirical view of farmers, the climate of Rio Grande do Sul, as well as its region of production, can be framed from regular to goodconditions for the cultivation of roses.
