Abstract

The extension is a tool that seeks to integrate the university with the society to which it is inserted. In this way, the extension project of Ecofeira at the Federal University of Mato Grosso (UFMT) provides for farmers, students, teachers and others involved, a greater interaction, belonging and propagation of knowledge, in a collaborative and free way. Being a disseminator of knowledge, Ecofeira aims to assist and provide producers with tools capable of providing autonomy in the production and marketing of organic products, in an ecological and sustainable way. Thus, it provides significant improvements in the income and quality of life of the families served by the project and, consequently, there is a decrease in the degradation of the environment.
