The book explores the challenges faced by agro-extractivist populations in Pará, focusing on their cultivation and extraction of medicinal and aromatic plants, oils, and resins. Families engage in these practices for personal use or sale, yet they often struggle to connect with the market. Despite the presence of specialized companies acquiring these bioactives, local communities frequently find themselves at a disadvantage in navigating economic relationships. The narrative highlights the intersection of traditional practices and modern market dynamics.
