This article investigates how women who break babassu palm nuts have been impacted by the Brazilian government's Matopiba development efforts in the Médio Mearim area of Maranhão, northeastern Brazil. The main characteristics of the agribusiness model in the region are examined together with its new form of territorialization (from expanding the agricultural frontier), along with the strategies and collective actions used by the babassu nut breakers against these projects. We utilized semi-structured interviews with leaders of the Interstate Babassu Nut Breakers Movement (Movimento Interestadual das Quebradeiras de Coco Babaçu, MIQCB) who play a prominent role in defending the territory and shaping the social and community fabric of the Médio Mearim region; specialized reports, previous studies, and audiovisual sources were also reviewed. Self-organization of women through the MIQCB has been one of their main strategies for (re)existence and collective action to combat the impacts of agribusiness on their bodies/territories and communities. The babassu nut breakers are political individuals who generate new emerging narratives through agroecology, cooperativism, food sovereignty, and rural and popular feminisms to combat increasing deforestation of babassu palms, socio-environmental conflicts, and violence in this region
