Women, Family farming, AgroecologyAbstract
The agroecology has proven to be a significant possibility of income for rural farmers and quality of consumption for urban populations wishing ecological food. Comparing the percentage of small farmers who remain in the field, it is the small portion that choo ses this type of production. Against this background the present work was to analyze the changes that agroecology generated in family farming scenario, giving greater emphasis will women's participation in this activity. With the help of EMATER, visits were made in properties located in the municipalities of Ronda Alta, Three Palms and Rondinha, getting reports on how agroecology is changing the lives of these women in the field. Initial results met the main goal of EMATER and other entities involved, which brought financial stability for the producer to keep up on the field. As a consequence of participation and autonomy that the process brought women, they were distinguished by their valuation, leaving aside the woman's view of home only. However the future prospects of this activity in the region is bleak, as the share of young people who want to continue the activities is small.Downloads

Ethical guidelines for journal publication
The REMOA is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviews should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
