Abstract
The farm is each time more recognized as an object of complex
study. This if becomes important when the farm is the object to supply
an advice of orientation or an aid to the management, or the scope of a
plan of agricultural development. For the dairy farms in agricultural bor-ders of the Amazon, characterized by an important diversity of operation
mode, the modeling of the diversity with the elaboration of typologies
is an important stage for the organization of the agricultural develop-ment. From the case of dairy farms in Uruará municipio, situated on
the Transamazonian frontier region, five main types of systems of milk
production and theirs trajectories had been identified. Associating these
two typologies, it was possible to identify the main dynamics within
the diversity of the dairy systems, which represent principal evolutions
between groups of farms. The results emphasize the importance of socio-economics factors for the installation and the development of the dairy
production. Inside this context, proposals can be formulated to promote
the beginning of the dairy production, its stability and the improvement
of the conditions of production.
