Resumo: Small farms in the Far West Catarinense need to seek alternative sources of income and improvements in environmental conditions to which they are their property, otherwise not have family succession, since there is the risk that the activity is associated with environmental degradation to which they are, constituting in a business with many uncertainties. The vulnerability they face family farmers has a direct relation to the size of the farms, very rugged topography and agricultural model adopted, which relies on annual crops very susceptible to climatic phenomena. This study aimed to analyze the tung (Eleurites fordii) as an alternative income and environmental protection for family farms. In the present study, we analyzed the economic viability of the culture with and without the use of technologies, intercropped with watermelon crop in the first five years, finally made a comparison of net income without considering the tung culture of participation watermelon, compared to a similar period with net income of corn. It was felt that the consultation period, while the corn for each unit invested returns only 0.48, in Tung returns for each unit invested 2.79.
