Resumo:
This academic work aims to evaluate the additions of the Milk Program in the Municipality of
Coxixola. Datas relating to the dairy goat story were collected. A historical context of the
creation of the Paraíba Milk Program was made, too. As a theoretical basis it was worked the
concepts of public policy and its aspects: government and state policy. The aspects of PRONAF
were analyzed from the viewpoint of some authors and dairy goat farming as an economic
activity. Therefore, it was investigated the advances which have led to the program in the social,
economic and environmental aspects of 2004 until the first semester of 2014 for training data.
One case study was conducted in the municipality of Coxixola through a questionnaire
administered to twelve pioneers and producers of the remaining time of implementation (10
years), where the reality experienced by the program served to the present day with the
implementation of this policy was investigated. It was also realized that the program in the
productive side has 57% of producers who have not completed primary school and 91% of these
producers were degraders and extractive of the environment. This work showed the evolution
of income of these producers that rose from extreme poverty to the C and D classes, besides
demonstrating the increase in the recruitment of program producers by 453% in the
municipality of Coxixola. Soon we identified evidence that the program no longer operates as
a government agenda, but as a public policy of the state with sustainability bias.
