Abstract
The food processing activities have emerged as important issues within the Rural
Development area, especially in the mid-1990s. When considering the history, these activities have
evolved over time. Farmers have adopted new practices and processes influenced by a set of
knowledge and technical skills. This article aims to present a proposal for a typology to characterize
the trajectory of food processing activities, using as empirical context reality four regions of Rio
Grande do Sul, Brazil. 64 families were interviewed (family farmers) who process food, using a
semi-structured form, observations and field diaries to collect data. For data analysis, we used the
qualitative technique called content analysis that guided the construction of typologies. Four
distinct groups of families were identified, which depict the diversity of their trajectories. The main
differences between the groups is relate to: the objectives of the families, the way started and
changed the production, by using technical knowledge. The typology allows greater knowledge
about the "universe" diversity that characterizes these activities in Rio Grande do Sul, contributing
to the reflection on the interventions advocated by the programs and policies for family farming.
