    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014) LIMA, Paula de Fátima da Cruz; LIMA, Aline Maria Meiguins de
    The production of organic food provides numerous benefits, such as the supply of healthy products, sustainable use of natural resources, and the elimination of genetically modified organisms. This study aimed to characterize the profile of organic food consumers in Manaus, identify the main parameters influencing consumption, and analyze the socio-environmental context of production and consumption. The field research was conducted at the Organic Producers Fair of the Association of Organic Producers of Amazonas (APOAM) in Manaus. The results indicate that consumers are mostly women, aged between 30 and 40, with higher education and a monthly income above R$ 3,000.00. Most consumers visit the fair weekly, purchasing mainly vegetables, fruits, and legumes, and believe that organic consumption contributes to environmental preservation.
