Cerratinga - Maracujá da Caatinga
-
0:41 - 0:45For me the Caatinga is life just as water is life.
-
0:46 - 0:55The dry season is a natural contrast that we can't avoid. We learned to deal with it and life goes on and gets better.
-
0:59 - 1:02The Caatinga is like us, alive.
-
1:03 - 1:07If we destroy it, we would be like killing someone - a crime.
-
1:20 - 1:28When I was young, we had two names for caatinga passion fruit:
-
1:28 - 1:32wild passion fruit and "ox" passion fruit.
-
1:35 - 1:43Here it grows wild, we didn't plant it. It grew on its own.
-
1:43 - 1:48We used to pick some, but most of it was wasted.
-
1:49 - 1:55Wild caatinga passion fruit is the same as when it is planted - It just creeps up a tree or a cactus and grows.
-
1:55 - 1:58It is different from when you plant or manage it.
-
2:01 - 2:10Caatinga passion fruit and umbu plum used to go to waste, but after the work of the co-op that changed.
-
2:10 - 2:15Children used to use it as a ball and now it's worth 40 Reais a bag.
-
2:18 - 2:24The Caatinga passion fruit is economically viable and ecologically correct...
-
2:24 - 2:29It is a native fruit that only uses water.
-
2:46 - 2:5670% of the people in the co-op who use native fruit are women.
-
2:56 - 3:03Women who process the fruit and make jellies, jams and pulps.
-
3:03 - 3:09They market these products, increasing family income by 30%.
-
3:09 - 3:15We started with a course about processing fruits around 1997
-
3:15 - 3:24with a group of about 20 women, who then became multipliers, leaders in their communities.
-
3:24 - 3:3030, 40 years ago many people used to move to São Paulo since there were no jobs here.
-
3:30 - 3:35Today 90% of the youth still live in their community.
-
3:37 - 3:46In our community the majority are youth who work with the processing of caatinga passion fruit, umbu plum and mango.
-
3:46 - 3:51And at the co-op 20% of the workers are young people.
-
3:53 - 4:01this improved quality of life, knowledge and education of families.
-
4:01 - 4:08It is another lifestyle that at the same time shows the sustainability of the semi-arid region...
-
4:08 - 4:11that here it is possible to live - to live well.
