Abstract

The aim of the present work is the analysis of marolo Annona crassiflora (Annonaceae) extraction from Alfenas region, South of Minas Gerais, using the Agro-food Local productive Systems (ALPS) approach, by the organization of growers and companies grouped by characteristics and functional areas in a specific region. In this context, the analysis of the aforementioned ALPS indicates several barriers to overcome impacting productivity, limiting access to raw inputs and outflow of products derived from marolo, precarious transmission systems and the exoticity of this fruit bound to a unique territorial identity, which creates a particular form of product marketing.
