Abstract
The possibility of a crisis in family farming referring on the succession of the
company is concerning when some children leave the property because they are not able or
do not want to be a farmer. This is a situation that could affect the socioeconomic viability of
rural settlements of Agrarian Reform. Therefore, the objective of this case study was to know
desires, future perspectives and the reality experienced by the young residents of the rural
settlement Florestan Fernandes, located in Florestópolis (PR), since these young actors could
continue to use gained batches. It was concluded that the majority of these young people
have great interest in continue living and working in the batches with their parents, but the
limitation of the family earnings in agricultural activities and the lack of their own income
force young people to choose leaving the property to seek new opportunities.
