Abstract(s)
Os problemas sociais e ambientais ligados ao afastamento da população das
zonas rurais para as zonas urbanas e, consequentemente, a dependências das práticas
da agricultura convencional e das monoculturas têm vindo a fazer crescer uma
preocupação geral pelo futuro, sendo, por isso, cada vez mais discutidos entre as
entidades competentes.
Este trabalho é um projeto de cariz maioritariamente social e ambiental, que
consiste na instalação de uma horta comunitária na freguesia da Barreira, para dar uso
a um terreno com aptidões agrícolas que está a ser desaproveitado e fazer face aos
problemas referidos acima.
Presente relatório começa por fazer um estudo das hortas comunitárias
existentes em Portugal que demonstra o crescente interesse da população em dedicar
parte do seu tempo a trabalhar na agricultura e de seguida apresenta os orçamentos, as
análises dos custos e dos benefícios da instalação do projeto.
Esta análise reflete como as hortas urbanas e comunitárias podem ser uma
solução para os problemas ambientais enfrentados hoje em dia, e mostra as suas
principais vantagens a nível económico, social e ambiental.
Palavras-chave: agricultura urbana; horta comunitária; agricultura biológica;

The social and environmental problems associated with the remoteness of the population from rural to urban areas and, as a result, the dependence on conventional farming and monoculture practices have been growing a general concern for the future and are, therefore, increasingly discussed between the competent authorities. This work is a project of mostly social and environmental nature, which consists of installing a community garden in the parish of Barreira, to make use of a land with agricultural skills that is being unused and to address the problems mentioned above. The project begins by conducting a study of existing community gardens in Portugal that demonstrates the growing interest of the population to devote part of their time to working in agriculture and then presents the budgets, the cost and benefit analyzes of the installation of the project. This analysis reflects how urban and community gardens can be a solution to today's environmental problems, and shows their main economic, social and environmental advantages. Keywords: urban agriculture; community garden; organic farming; local development; harnessing uncultivated land
