Abstract

In this paper are analysed the processes of adaptation, adoption and mastery of technical innovations in ecologically-based family farms located on the eastern Amazon. Is given emphasis for technical innovations employed in the productive process of annual crops associated to babaçu. The unit of analysis is the family farm with burned and unburned plots. The acceptance or rejection of all or a part of the technical innovations depends on several factors. However, those that are linked to unburned plots are the most difficult to assimilate, probably because they cause deeper changes in the production system.
