The present dissertation deals with the logic / meaning of the structure and functioning of the Agroamigo Program in the city of Arapiraca / AL and its insertion in the dialectical movement of financialisation of social policies, reproduction of poverty and social inequality in the countryside. Its main objective is to analyze the particularities of the Microcredit Program as a public policy of the Program for Rural Productive Inclusion (part of the strategies to combat poverty of the Brazil Without Poverty Plan) directed at the peasant families of the above-mentioned locality. The guiding questions are asked about the limits and contradictions of the Rural Productive Inclusion Program, via Microcredit Program, in the said municipality? Do the actions of the State, through credit policies, stimulate the overcoming of poverty or the financial inclusion of family farmers by the banks? To what extent can a policy based on the bank lending strategy be able to address poverty? We take as a guiding hypothesis the assertion that the inclusive production strategy in the field, from the perspective of microcredit (Agroamigo), although it constitutes a mechanism for coping with rural poverty for Arapiraca peasant families, contradictorily produces and reproduces new expressions of old social issues. We dedicate theoretical treatment to the historical-structural foundations of the capitalist mode of production, with emphasis on the new dynamics of accumulation in the scenario of the financial globalization of capital, establishing mediations for the understanding of microcredit programs and territorial policies to combat rural poverty Are the basis for the understanding of the object studied here. For the successive approximations and apprehension of the reality, we are guided in the critical perspective from the dialectical method. This is an exploratory, qualitative-quantitative research. For data collection, we used bibliographic, documentary and empirical research techniques, which were performed through a semi-structured interview, with the coordinator and agent of the program, and also with the farming families of microcredit borrowers. As a result, we highlight that Agroamigo, as a policy of rural productive inclusion disseminated in the municipality of Arapiraca-AL, besides not facing the root of poverty, reproduces a mass of indebted farmers with the bank, reifying the contradictory logic of public policies in the state capitalist.
