Resumo
Farmers' earnings in the municipality of Palmital, in the middle Paranapanema region, are analyzed. Multivariate statistical analysis (multiple regression model) identified the factors that positively or negatively interfere in the farmers' earnings. Data were retrieved by a survey among a stratified selection of farmers ranked according to rural establishments (familial and ownership), between August 2013 and July 2015. Current interdisciplinary research comprised qualitative and quantitative aspects whose statistical analysis involved 49 variables on production systems. Analysis identified the variables that most affected the farmers' earnings. Results revealed that diversity of production systems improved the profits of familial farmers. It may actually increase one of the systems, or rather, their attribution to further areas that may improve their earnings. In the case of farmer-owners, variables, such as area size and production per hectare, were crucial for their agricultural earnings.
