Limites e oportunidades para a construção de um Arranjo Produtivo Local (APL): a experiência do projeto Balde Cheio em Mato Grosso do Sul.

The aim of the current study is to analyze whether the "Balde Cheio" (Full Bucket) Project, which is carried out in Mato Grosso do Sul State, may lead to a Local Productive Arrangement (APL) pointing out limitations and potentialities for its construction. As the methodological aspects, we used secondary data through literature and field research (visit farms). The technical training availability, the financial support given by the State, and the increased milk production/productivity in the properties are elements able to lead to the LPA.
