Resumo
Visando a manutenção de destaque da cafeicultura sul-mineira no cenário nacional, o Estado de Minas Gerais, por intermédio de suas instituições públicas, criou um programa de desenvolvimento regional que constitui-se como o canal formal para a difusão de informações, inovações e tecnologias para atender aos principais problemas referentes à cafeicultura regional. Com esse objetivo, foi implantado o "Circuito Sul-Mineiro de Cafeicultura", que tem como finalidade sistematizar e organizar encontros na área de cafeicultura na região, integrando as instituições públicas de pesquisa de pesquisa, ensino, extensão, melhor a qualidade do café, manter e criar novos empregos, aumentar a produtividade, reduzir os custos de produção e, por conseqüência, melhorar a renda dos cafeicultores. Entretanto, apesar da importância desse programa de difusão de tecnologia como subsídio para a solução de problemas referentes à cafeicultura da região sul e sudoeste do Estado de Minas Gerais, ele ainda não foi avaliado. Portanto, conduziu-se este trabalho com o objetivo de avaliar o Circuito Sul-Minas de Cafeicultura, considerando-se uma abordagem metodológica orientada por diferentes métodos de pesquisa, analisando os objetivos declarados pelo programa e a sua efetividade quanto aos resultados alcançados. Com esta pesquisa evidenciou-se que a combinação de métodos quantitativos e qualitativos demonstrou ser uma abordagem adequada e complementar para extrair dados e avaliar o programa sob foco. Também verificaram-se evidências de que os objetivos pelo Programa foram parcialmente atingidos, baseando-se nas percepções dos cafeicultores que são os usuários diretos do Programa. Foram verificados ainda que os objetivos declarados pelo programa "Circuito Sul-Mineiro de Cafeicultura" são os reais problemas enfrentados pelos cafeicultores nas regiões sul e sudeste do Estado de Minas Gerais.
Aiming at the maintenance of prominence of South Minas coffee culture in the national scenario, the state of Minas Gerais by mean of its public institutions, has created a regional development program witch is as a formal channel for information, innovations and technologies to meet the main problems concerning to regional coffee production. With that purpose, the Southern Minas Ambit of Coffee culture was established, which intends to systematize and organize meeting sin the area of coffee culture in the region, integrating the public institutions of research teaching and extension private institutions and the coffee farmers in the search of the following objectives: to improve the quality of coffee, keep and create new employments, increase yield, reduce production costs and as a consequence improve the coffee farmers income. Nevertheless, in spite of the importance of that program of technology release as a subside for the solution of the problems concerning to coffee production of the Southern and Southeastern region of the state of Minas Gerais, it has been evaluated yet. Therefore, this work was conducted with a view to evaluating the Southern Minas Ambit of Coffee Culture, by taking into account a methodological approach oriented by different research methods as to the results achieved. By this research, it was stressed that the combination of quantitative and qualitative methods proved to be a adequate and complementary approach to extract data and evaluate the program under focus. Also, evidence that the objectives stated by the Program were partially achieved, basing on the the coffee farmers’ perceptions who are the direct users of the Program. It was found, in addition, that the objectives stated by the Southern Minas Ambit of Coffee culture program are real problems faced by the coffee farmers in the Southern and Southeastern regions of the state of Minas Gerais.
