Abstract
This paper presents preliminary thoughts about a specific experience on the participatory research methodology developed together with a rural settled
community located in Pontal do Paranapanema (in the State of São Paulo). The work is currently in progress, so that the DPR - Diagnóstico Rápido Participativo (Concise Results from a Participatory Research) methodology was applied to a group of settled people in the Primavera settlement (Associação Renascer de Produtores Rurais) and to another group in the Tupãciretan settlement (Associação dos Produtores Rurais do Assentamento Tupãciretan). Although the available material is partially accomplished, some important evidences on the environment reality of the settlements and the community perception can be presented. It was noticed that the environmental problems have an effect on several aspects of the settled people's lives, such as the question regarding pasture-based milk production that is affected by low-quality pastures. Therefore, the agricultural technician aid is seen as a way to improve the environment issues or as problems-solving when challenging difficulties in production.
Keywords: Rural Settlements; Participatory Research; Environmental Issue.
