The community of Nossa Senhora Aparecida works for the production of family agriculture and performs its actions in the form of agroforestry systems (SAFs), which are composed by the sub-systems of fields, backyard, rivers and lakes obeying the periods of flood, drought of the river Solimões, and intrinsic to this system has management with a focus on associativism, which is one of the reasons this community serves as a reference for people from middle Solimões. The Community Association of Rural Producers of the Community Nossa Senhora Aparecida (APRODUCIDA) seeks partnerships, activities that strengthen the quality of life of community members with participatory actions both in decisions that are better for the community and in the execution of tasks.

As a result, we obtained excellent results of the investigated aspects, since in this work they are presented as theoretical reference, concepts and theories spread by several scholars from the Amazon and with the education bias, which can be considered as a complex phenomenon of human existence, focusing in different places and traditional communities life style.
