Abstract

The study of agricultural and agro-industrial activities in areas with diversified economy is relevant because of the impact of this production in the local development. In this study we develop a research, on the theme of innovation (technological change) in agricultural and agro-industrial activities, focusing on the poultry production in the counties of AMREC region, southern of Santa Catarina State, Brazil. The research was conducted in 2013 and had a qualitative approach. We carried out: a) literature review on the subject, b) field research to collect information from the exhibitors in an agricultural fair (Agroponte) and with researcher from CIDASC, the agricultural development company of Santa Catarina State, and c) a survey in documents available from EPAGRI, the state agricultural research company. The study results indicate that the growth of poultry production in the region has attracted the attention of some companies. However, it was observed that these companies are offering the same machinery (product range) offered elsewhere and conventional technology solutions.
