The production chain of sugarcane derivatives is of great relevance in the income generation of family farming in the Brazilian Northeast. The present study aims to analyze how the production and commercialization of these organically produced derivatives occurs in the sugar mills of the municipalities of Triunfo - PE and Santa Cruz da Baixa Verde - PE, as well as the generation of income for the families involved, observing historical and contained in all stages of production.

The main results found show that most families involved in this production process are multi-activity, but even performing other functions, the milling period increases the income of these people, and therefore the income that individuals have throughout the year were analyzed. And separately the income from production in these mills. It was noted that the producers who supply sugar cane to a cooperative have advantages over those that supply to the other mills, and also that one of the mills is responsible for the manufacture of artisanal cachaça and has differentiation in practically all of it. productive process, including functioning throughout the year as a tourist spot in the city of Triunfo - PE.
