Unit 2

In this unit, we invite you to pay attention to your region and try to understand how the reality of smallholder farming looks like. This understanding will be based on the reading of the following content, as well as on discussions with professionals involved in the PNAE´s operation. So you can better understand this theme, we´ll cover from the legal basis to the operation steps to acquire smallholder farming goods.

Slide 1 of 5

Acquisition of foodstuffs from smallholder farming to the PNAE: legal basis and operation

You probably remember what we´ve covered about Law no. 11,947/2009.

This Law states that a minimum 30% of financial resources transferred from the PNAE to states, municipalities and the Federal District must be used to acquire goods from smallholder farming. This purchase does not require a bidding procedure (civil service exam) as long as prices are compatible with the ones exercised in local markets and constitutional principles (Paragraph 1 Article 14 of Law no. 11,947/2009).

This measure seeks to simplify the process of public purchases from smallholder farming for school feeding, to consider the logic of smallholder farmer´s production at fair prices and, above all, to offer fresh, healthy food to our students.

Considering the discharge of bidding procedures (civil service exam), a few steps must be followed to ensure candour, transparency and effectiveness of public purchases directly from smallholder farming to school feeding.

The steps to be followed by Executive Entities (States and Municipalities) cover:

Budget verification

Make a balance of financial resources transferred from the FNDE, in the scope of PNAE, and define the amount that will be invested in the acquisition of smallholder farming for school feeding, taking into account that the minimum is 30%.

Working alongside actors

Hold meetings with the social actors involved in smallholder farming for the PNAE (smallholder farmers, school community, secretary of agriculture, nutritionist) to learn about the mapping of local agricultural production, the logistical and processing capacity of the products.

Elaborating the menu

Prepare the menu, considering the production of local smallholder farming.

Defining acquisition price

Set the price of foodstuffs to be purchased from smallholder farming, based on local market research.

Divulging public call

Disclose Public Call, with details of the rules for the supply (location, periodicity) of the products to be purchased, with respective prices.

Elaborating sale project

Farmers formalize their interest in selling their products to school meals, preparing and presenting a sales project according to their production capacity and delivery conditions.

Receiving sale project

The Program's Executing Entity receives the sales projects, accompanied by documents as established by law.

Selecting sale project

The Executing Entity analyzes the documents for the qualification of farmers / organizations and the sales projects with respective documentation and makes the selection, as required by law.
Obs. EEx can provide in the Public Call, the presentation of a sample of the products to be purchased, for prior quality control.

Signing the contract

For the selected projects, purchase contracts are signed between EEx and the farmer and / or smallholder farmers' organizations.

Delivering products

Finally, the products are delivered, as established in the Public Call, and the Receipt is signed by EEx and the farmer and / or smallholder farmers' organizations.
