Almost everywhere for decades in the world, the sharing of information and knowledge has been essential to the growth of agricultural production and productivity. The objective of this research is to understand the process of sharing information and knowledge for the creation of agricultural practices for urban farmers in the Infulene Valley. In methodological terms, quantitative (descriptive statistics, t-test, correlations, and logistic regression) and qualitative analyses (pattern matching and textual statistical analysis) were performed. Stratified random sampling (producers), convenience sampling (technicians) and census (association leaders) were used. The results showed that access to technical assistance is unequal among the group of producers. On the other hand, the pedagogical contents are given in a linear approach (centered on the technician) and the exchange of information and knowledge takes place largely through alternative horizontal means, meaning, between producers by the degree of kinship and proximity.
