This article highlights the role of store of value and of agent foster of rural income of secondary forests, also known as “capoeira” (brushwood), often confused with degraded areas, with no economic or ecological function. The importance of the secondary forests - which increasingly dominate the scenario of family agriculture of the Brazilian Amazon – as a productive factor here was studied through the identifi cation and description of the supply chains of products from secondary forest and opportunities for development of these chains for farmers in the municipalities of Bragança, Capitão Poço and Garrafão do Norte. The established supply chains are simple, and the main products identifi ed are grouped into categories of fruit, timber, derived from animal and medicinal plants. It was concluded that the secondary forests proved to exert a key role in maintaining biodiversity and in the regeneration of anthropized ecosystems, and contribute in the income of farmers. |
