RESUMO:

The Amazon Rainforest is of fundamental importance to life on Earth, as it is home to the world's greatest biodiversity and has an influence on hydrological cycles and climate on a global scale. In Brazil, the Amazon Forest occupies 59% of the national territory, covering seven states in the Northern Region (Amazonas, Pará, Amapá, Roraima, Rondônia, Acre and Tocantins) and part of two states, one in the Center-West region (Mato Grosso) and the other in the Northeast region (Maranhão), considered as a whole, the Legal Amazon. The process of occupying the Amazon Rainforest has been accentuated since the 1970s, and its appropriation is based on agricultural production, mainly of commodities, which has increased the rate of deforestation in this biome and consequently affected the rainfall regime, soil quality, biodiversity and people's life strategies. Mato Grosso originally had its territorial extension (903,208 km2) covered by the Amazon Rainforest (53.6%), the Cerrado (39.6%) and the Pantanal (6.79%), which have been suffering from deforestation for conversion into agricultural systems. These farming systems are in large-scale areas, while small properties have their economy based on family farming. These systems adopt conventional forms of land use, which have caused alterations and even degradation. The Agroforestry System has (re)emerged as a strategy for combining agricultural production and environmental conservation, which has brought good results for environmental restoration and sustainable production, especially for family farming. The aim of this research was to study two agroforestry systems in Alta Floresta/MT, one aimed at restoring a Permanent Preservation Area and producing food, and the other at sustaining native sacred plants and those used for ritualistic purposes in the Amazon rainforest. The research was based on an inventory of the plant species present in the two systems, which had uses for consumption and environmental benefits. The dissertation is structured in a general introduction and two chapters, containing an introduction, materials and methods and results, and final considerations. The first chapter looked at the use of Agroforestry Systems as a tool for restoring Permanent Preservation Areas on family farms. The second chapter investigated an agroforestry system to guarantee environmental conditions for the maintenance of the Mariri liana (Banisteriopsis caapi (Spruce ex Griseb.) C. V. Morton) for ritualistic use at the Beneficent Spiritist Center União do Vegetal.
