Abstract

ABSTRACT: This research aimed to analyze the implementation of rural credit resources FNO Pronaf in agriculture/Familiar (AF) in the northern region. He admitted that these funds have contributed to the growth of agricultural production in the region, having a relevant role in food production, as well as in the generation of income and pricing policy in the field. The results revealed that: each State has its own dynamics with regard to the rural sector, with a greater or lesser degree, depending on the agrarian structure and the performance of public policies directed to that segment; some States have low credit demand of FNO/Pronaf for reasons as agrarian conflicts and casting of rural activities arising from laws relating to environmental protection; There are concentration of resources granted for the expansion of the production of the AF held by groups with higher income levels, and only some States specialize in the agricultural sector.KEYWORDS: Family Agriculture, North Region, Rural Credit.
