Extension Actions For Management Of The Use And Occupation Of Soil In The Campus Of The Federal University Of Campina Grande In Pombal-Pb

Abstract

The objective of this work was to build a documentary base to elaborate a participative environmental zoning with focus on the use and occupation of the soil in the Center for Food and Science and Technology of the Federal University of Campina Grande, campus of Pombal-PB. For this purpose, 372 mixed composition questionnaires were applied, where 10 questions were multiple choice and 2 open questions, destined to the academic community  and, concurrently, a diagnosis  of current  land use and occupation was developed in the CCTA - UFCG and Fazenda area Experimental pertaining to  the  Campus.  In sequence, two thematic maps  were constructed, and extension actions  were  carried  out: elaboration  and  distribution  of  folders  and  booklets referring  to  the  theme  of  land  use  and  occu-pation and an informative talk about the progress of the project for the  academic  community.  The  data  obtained  indicated  the  need  to introduce and extend the theme "Land Use and Land Use" in the study  area,  since  the great  majority  of  the  actors  of  the  academic community of the CCTA - UFCG do not have the proper knowledge on the subject. Therefore, placing it on the agenda is an important step to  change  this  conception, in  addition  to  making  the  study  area  a  reference in the environmental planning of land use and occupation, both  for  implantation  or  expansion  of  other  teaching and  research  institutions,  and  to  the  local  society, which,  in  principle,  will  benefit  indirectly from the research.
