Summary
O artigo analisa as estratégias de 03 redes de cooperativas que trabalham com leite no Território Oeste de Santa Catarina, verificando sua aproximação com princípios e práticas agroecológicas. Foram estudadas as redes Aurora, Terra Viva e Ascooper, analisando documentos e realizando entrevistas com suas principais lideranças. A agricultura familiar está na base organizacional das 03 redes e ela adotou a produção de pastagem como a principal forma de alimentação dos animais, o que representa uma inovação coletiva no território, ocorrida de forma difusa, sem liderança de nenhum ator social específico. Além da produção à pasto, a Terra Viva e a Ascooper avançaram com a fitoterapia e a homeopatia na sanidade dos animais, mostrando maior ênfase na construção de sistemas agroecológicos. A Ascooper avança mais, enfatizando sistemas produtivos localizados e investimento em plantas agroindustriais para leite e derivados orgânicos.
Summary translation
The article analyzes the strategies of 03 cooperative networks of milk production (Aurora, Terra Viva and Ascooper), located in the West territory of Santa Catarina, verifying their approach to agroecological principles and practices. The study included the analysis of documents and interviews with their main leaders. Family farming is on the organisational basis of the 03 networks and pasture, adopted as the main form of feeding, represents a colective innovation in the territory, that occurred in a diffuse way, without the leadership of a specific social actor. Terra Viva and Ascooper went further by using fitotherapy and homeopathy to treat animals, thus emphasizing the implementation of agroecological systems. Ascooper is a step forward, working with localized productive systems and agro-industrial plants designed for organic dairy products.
