    The process of expansion of typically capitalist agriculture in the Brazilian countryside is summarily marked by actions engendered by the state, which have as their central axes credit policies, the stimulation of the adoption of technological packages, the delimitation and consolidation of areas specialized in commodity production, aiming at Brazil's increasing insertion in the international division of labor. Among the policies anchored in these guidelines, the Política Nacional de Irrigação (1979) should be highlighted, which had as one of its main developments the installation of public irrigation projects (irrigated perimeters), which constituted one of the main mechanisms for Northeast in the hall of modern agricultural activities, especially from the production of irrigated fruits. Based on these assumptions, this thesis aims to understand how in the current historical period the materialities and actions associated with the creation and dynamics of irrigated perimeters have been constituted as a (re) defining element in the agricultural uses of the potiguar territory. From the theoretical point of view the reflections undertaken here are aligned with the conceptual system proposed in Milton Santos' work, especially with the concepts of space, technique and norms, these imbricated the notion of used territory. Regarding the methodology used for the construction of this work, it is worth mentioning the effort to build matrices of events and norms associated with the reality under analysis, despite the elaboration of cartographic products through which the location of water engineering systems is presented and if spatializes the use of irrigation techniques. The field work carried out in the five existing irrigated perimeters in the state is also an important methodological strategy, because through this it was possible to observe the particularities and similarities between the different irrigation projects, although all result from the same policy. The reflections undertaken show that the use of irrigation systems has a punctual nature and selective character, attributes that become more acute as a result of irrigated agriculture being a densely standardized activity. Moreover, it is noteworthy that the implementation of public irrigation projects was able to produce fractions of the territory with structural similarities and distinctions as to the forms of appropriation and use of it, since the irrigated perimeters created in the 1970s, although dynamic and economically important. For the municipalities, today they are eminently used as shelter, being the place of residence, work and socialization of the families of DNOCS land settlers who, even with the irrigation disuse, remained in the plots and areas corresponding to the perimeters. In the Distrito Irrigado do Baixo-Açu, it is verified that the use of the territory is actually given as a resource, given the production and market logic that characterizes it, even though its production is basically intended to supply the local and regional market.

    Since the 1970s, Brazil has gone through several changes in its economic and productive structures, which have symbiotic relationship with the organization and dynamics of the Brazilian territory. This set of economic, social and technical-scientific transformations developed in the amid the productive capital restructuring, a process that occurs on a global scale, but that effective with particularities in different places. Adopting this presuposition the present research had as main objective analyze the productive restructuring of the dairy sector in Rio Grande do Norte, highlighting its relationship with production process / organization of space and its impact on the social relations of production. The adopted methodology to elaborate of this study was based on the achievement a bibliographic review with regard to proceedings of production of space and productive restructuring, document research about the dynamics of the dairy sector in Rio Grande do Norte, as well as on regulatory instructions governing the dairy production in Brazil, we achieve parallel secondary data collection, with official organs such as IBGE, EMATER and SINDLEITE. Another important methodological resource was the realization of the field research, which enabled us to empirically understand the distinct realities lived by agents acting on milk production system in Rio Grande do Norte. The analyzes performed nevertheless evidence that the restructuring process in the dairy sector is fomented, greatly by state,that finance, encourages and normatizes the production of milk in the country. In the specific case of Rio Grande do Norte, this process is boosted by the creation of "Programa do Leite," which by constituting of an institutional market, contributes to the strengthening and expansion of industries, the detriment of the artisanal processing sector. Nevertheless family farmers continue to act in the activity, be only producing and trading fresh milk, supplying milk to processing units, mediating the production of their peers or by the craft benefiting milk in traditional cheese factories presents in the entire state of Rio Grande do Norte. The results reveal that it is a complex web of social relations of production that are established at the heart of laticinista activity in the Rio Grande Norte, these are summarily marked by relations of competition and complementarity between industrial and artisanal processing of milk
