Abstact: The objective of this research was to characterize the socioeconomic and productive profile of
commercial poultry in the Island of Maranhão - MA and to report the sanitary episode of avian litter
intake by cattle, epidemiologically characterizing the sanitary situation and the sanitation measures
implemented. In order to reach the objectives of this study, 10 commercial broiler breeders
registered at the State Agency of Agricultural and Livestock Defense of the State of Maranhão were
interviewed through semi-structured questionnaires. E, used 119 cattle from a rural property located
in the municipality of São José de Ribamar - MA. As a basic research instrument (questionnaires) it
was possible to determine some characteristics of poultry farming, such as: profile of poultry
producers; characteristics of properties; performance of the activity; and, production, use and
marketing of aviary bed. With the results obtained in this study we observed a new organization of
the production chain of broilers in the study area. Thus, there is a producer with a differentiated
profile in the Island of Maranhão, characterized by production in partnership with integrating
companies and employment of hired labor, characterizing an industrial-type poultry; incorporation
of producers with larger land areas and greater bird housing capacity; and, the presence of technical
assistance that is reverted in improvement of the sanitary state and, consequently, in the indicators
of productive performance. As for the sanitary episode, this was the result of an anonymous
complaint about the supply of poultry litter as feed for cattle. After 72 hours of the complaint,
property inspection and collection of feed samples were carried out. The collected material was sent
to the National Agricultural Laboratory of Santa Catarina for the detection or not of by-products of
animal origin. In the initial inspection to the rural property was verified the presence of aviary bed
supplied to the cattle as food. And, the laboratory result was detected the presence of uncalcined
bones, non-hydrolyzed feathers and blood, which proves the feeding of the animals with byproducts of animal origin. The data obtained in this study show that commercial poultry farming in
the Island of Maranhão has great potential for expansion, mainly based on grain supply, climate,
favorable topography and good infrastructure. However, there is a need to establish incentive
measures for poultry farms focused on health education, taking into account the production, use and
commercialization of poultry litter and the risks arising from them in ruminant feeding. It is
suggested the intensification in the active inspections in ruminant rearing properties and the control
in the transit of the aviary bed that appears in the documentation the purpose of use of this byproduct.2018-01-01T00:00:00ZA “Via Crucis” para a implantação do serviço de inspeção municipal em municípios maranhenses: desafios, operacionalização, manutenção e inserção social dos agricultores familiares por meio do acesso a mercadoshttps://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/57292025-12-23T13:42:50Z2023-10-30T00:00:00ZTítulo: A “Via Crucis” para a implantação do serviço de inspeção municipal em municípios maranhenses: desafios, operacionalização, manutenção e inserção social dos agricultores familiares por meio do acesso a mercados
Abstact: The lack of human resources with specific training to carry out the implementation procedures
of the Municipal Inspection Service – SIM contributes to the low insertion of animal protein
from family farming in formal markets, showing the increasing need for support from public
authorities so that public policies achieve the desired result. Therefore, the objective of the
study was to evaluate the obstacles and propose alternatives for the implementation of the
Municipal Inspection Service (SIM) in municipalities in Maranhão, focusing on the challenges,
operationalization, maintenance and access to markets. To this end, the study construction
process was divided into three stages, starting with the situational survey of the SIM in the state
of Maranhão, followed by the identification of the perception of the executors and managers of
policies/programs for the commercialization of family farming products on the main obstacles
that impede the implementation, operationalization and maintenance of the SIM and ending
with the preparation of a Technical Manual entitled “Removing bureaucracy from SIM
Implementation: manual for managers and technicians”. In the first stage of the study, a
retrospective documentary bibliographical research was carried out, through consultation of
reports and databases, electronic and physical from the State Agency for Agricultural Defense
of Maranhão, referring to the years 2012 to 2021. In the second stage, it was applied a semi-
structured questionnaire for 44 managers/executors of policies to support the commercialization
of family farming products, in which the variables analyzed were divided into two blocks of
questions: (i) characteristics and functions of managers/executors of policies/programs; and,
(ii) level of knowledge about SIM, ending with the main difficulties in inserting animal protein
in institutional markets. To prepare the manual, which constituted the third stage of the work,
a bibliographic survey was carried out on the topic and using simple language, the content of
the e-Book was organized into six modules, aiming to clarify the main doubts of the actors
involved, identified during the work. The results obtained show that: i) SIM is absent in most
municipalities in Maranhão and in those that are present, its fragility can be seen, which can
compromise the quality of animal protein inserted in institutional markets; ii) There is a need
for public policies for its implementation, accompanied by greater attention from the state
public authorities so that, together with market access policies, they can boost the economy of
the municipalities of Maranhão; iii) The implementation of these policies and programs is still
institutionally individualized, which, combined with the interviewees' little knowledge about
food regulatory policies, can be included in the obstacles to the insertion of animal protein in
the Maranhão institutional market. It is concluded that the technical product generated, due to
its didactic and guiding nature, can increase the number of municipalities with the SIM
implemented and, consequently, contribute significantly to public policies to strengthen family
farming, food security and sustainable local development. can have a transformative effect on
the quality of life of families and the environment in which they live2023-10-30T00:00:00ZMonitoramento de Salmonella spp. em granjas comerciais de frango de corte np estado do Maranhãohttps://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/55392025-10-31T15:36:11Z2024-12-23T00:00:00ZTítulo: Monitoramento de Salmonella spp. em granjas comerciais de frango de corte np estado do Maranhão
Abstact: In recent years, the increase in global chicken meat production has brought sanitary
challenges, such as the spread of microorganisms in intensive farming systems. In this
context, monitoring Salmonella spp. is crucial to ensure product quality, protect
consumer health, and strengthen Maranhão as a competitive poultry hub. This study
aimed to monitor Salmonella spp. in commercial broiler farms in the state of Maranhão
and to develop a sample collection manual to assist technical personnel in poultry
establishments. The analyses were carried out following the methodology established
by Ordinance No. 126, dated November 3, 1995, which sets standards for the
diagnosis of avian salmonellosis. The sampled farms were located in nine
municipalities within the state of Maranhão. During 2022 and 2023, 578 surface swab
samples were analyzed using boot swabs: 393 samples in 2022, with 12 positives
(3.1%), and 175 samples in 2023, with 9 positives (5.1%). The results confirm the
presence of Salmonella spp. in the farms, although the priority serovars targeted by
the National Poultry Health Program were not detected, indicating that biosecurity
measures have been effective. However, the increase in the positivity rate in 2023
underscores the need to intensify surveillance strategies and sanitary control practices.
The sample collection manual developed in this study, aligned with the guidelines of
the National Poultry Health Program, provides clear instructions to ensure the accuracy
and reliability of diagnoses. Training professionals in the sector, combined with
systematic monitoring, is essential to mitigate the risks associated with salmonellosis
and safeguard public health2024-12-23T00:00:00ZAplicativo NOTIFICA: ferramenta digital para auxílio ao serviço de defesa agropecuária no monitoramento de doenças em rebanhos animais no estado do Maranhãohttps://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/55322025-10-30T16:37:21Z2024-09-30T00:00:00ZTítulo: Aplicativo NOTIFICA: ferramenta digital para auxílio ao serviço de defesa agropecuária no monitoramento de doenças em rebanhos animais no estado do Maranhão
Abstact: Compulsory Notifiable Diseases (CNDs) represent a significant limiting factor for
animal production and a complicating factor for public health, especially for diseases
that lack effective prevention and control mechanisms or those associated with
environmental, social, and economic drivers. This study aimed to develop and evaluate
the usability of an application with a user-friendly and functional interface, designed to
enhance communication and interaction with strategic stakeholders, such as livestock
producers, agribusinesses, cooperatives, government agencies, and agricultural
science professionals. Inspired by the content and disease notification forms of the e-
Sisbravet system. The application was designed to facilitate disease reporting and
epidemiological monitoring in Maranhão state, developed using C# with an interface in
