A relação rural-urbano e o abastecimento alimentar

The food supply takes place in the conjunction of different forms of the space, in which rural and urban express different possibilities of relationship. The specificity of such relationships can be identified through the predominant character in the policies and actions that define them, sectoral or territorial. This definition is of great importance to analyze the interests underlying the production and distribution of food in a given space and time, as it demarcates the spatial relationship established as hegemonic. In this context, this article aims to reflect on the relationship between rural and urban dynamics in the consolidation of food supply, in view of the sectoral and territorial approaches. For this, a bibliographic review was carried out on the subject, highlighting the sectoral and territorial approaches, the rural-urban relationship and the concepts of food security and sovereignty. While the sectorial approach separates the rural from the urban, imposing the middleman as an obligatory passage for the meeting between producers and consumers, the territorial approach allows us to think of a contradictory and integrated relationship, in which they stand out alternative proposals of the production and distribution local and regional of food
