Revista Ibero-Americana de Ciências Ambientais, v. 12, n. 11, p. 31-44, nov. 2021. DOI: 10.6008/CBPC2179-6858.2021.011.0004.https://rigalileo.itegam.org.br/handle/123456789/330Environmental issues remain a growing agenda worldwide, with a significant focus on the Amazon. However, the human contingent inhabiting this region, particularly family farmers, is often overlooked. The Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) was created as a tool to promote sustainable public policies and enable environmental and land regularization for these communities. This literature review study investigates CAR's contribution to family farmers in the state of Amazonas from a legal and environmental perspective. The results indicate that understanding the legal aspects and registration process of CAR is essential for compliance. The simplified registration process for family farmers facilitates legal compliance, promoting environmental and land tenure regularization and reducing territorial conflicts. The study concludes that implementing the Brazilian Forest Code, with technical support, is crucial for the sustainability of family farming in the Amazon.PDF.Agricultura familiarCadastro Ambiental RuralLicenciamento ambientalRegularização fundiáriaAgricultores familiares amazônicosArtigoExtensão e Desenvolvimento Rural
