SUMMARY:

Amid the current scenario of food production and consumption and its socioeconomic, environmental, and public health repercussions, the potential of Brazilian school feeding and public food purchases to transform food systems through public actions and policies are highlighted that favor sustainable development. The “Public Call” purchase modality was instituted and opened spaces for family farming in institutional purchases in the country. However, there is still a need for adjustments and analyzes that allow for better implementation of its policies, which show points for improvement and reflection on the intrinsic conditions of production and marketing that encompass these farmers. Thus, this research aimed to evaluate public purchases of foodstuffs from family farming for school meals in the Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology of Rio Grande do Norte (IFRN). A documentary analysis of the Public Call notices of the National School Feeding Program (PNAE) and Food Acquisition Program (PAA) was carried out, considering the following analysis criteria: financial investment, between the years 2012 to 2020; and analyses of the last year (2020) for the characterization of family farmers, evaluation of food homologated and food processing levels. Public purchases from 15 campuses distributed among the 11 immediate regions of the State of Rio Grande do Norte were studied. The results revealed a financial investment of ≥ 30% in practically all the campuses evaluated since the insertion of the PNAE and PAA in the IFRN, even with decreases in recent years. Related to the characterization of family farmers, in their form of organization, the majority (56.25%) were grouped (formally or informally), with priority given to the supply of fruit, however, few (6.25%) were characterized as agroecological producers. Among the homologated foods, “fruits” and “foods with limited supply” (mainly cakes and dairy drinks) were the highlights, and of the 5.2% not homologated, 63.6%were due to the non-delivery of sample for sanitary control and 36.4% due to the lack of farmers interested in supplying the product contained in the notice. Moreover, 83.06% of the foods listed in the calls were in natura or minimally processed. However, processed and ultra-processed foods were present, requested above 25% in some regions. It is believed that this study contributed to the understanding of the dynamics and form of insertion of family farmers into the institutional market and may facilitate the maintenance and/or dissemination of their role in the context of public procurement, highlighting the importance of food and nutrition policies and family farming as social, environmental, nutritional, social and economic protection networks.
