Entretanto, devemos ressaltar o car?ter seletivo que marca este processo, que ocorre de maneira desigual espa?o-temporalmente, ao privilegiar determinadas ?reas do territ?rio, produtos agr?colas e categorias de produtores. Nessa perspectiva, o posicionamento que defendemos aqui, enquanto problema de pesquisa, ? de que embora existam no Rio Grande do Norte, recorte emp?rico de investiga??o, ?reas que sobressaem apresentando n?veis t?cnicos mais elevados (em ci?ncia e informa??o) na agricultura, existe um conjunto de elementos singulares do RN, que quando combinados se imp?em de modo a tamb?m tornar particular a efetiva??o do processo de tecnifica??o da agricultura, tornando o estado uma ?rea de rarefa??o que se insere de forma d?spar na divis?o t?cnica e territorial do trabalho agr?cola brasileiro. Partindo dessa premissa, a presente pesquisa teve por objetivo central analisar o processo de tecnifica??o da agricultura no Rio Grande do Norte, no per?odo t?cnico-cient?fico-informacional, dando especial aten??o aos rebatimentos desse processo na configura??o e no uso agr?cola do territ?rio. Desenvolvemos uma revis?o bibliogr?fica sobre o uso do territ?rio e os sistemas t?cnicos agr?colas, associada ao uso de dados secund?rios, sobretudo obtidos junto aos ?rg?os oficiais, como IBGE, FIERN e EMPARN, bem como atentamos para o emprego de procedimentos metodol?gicos espec?ficos da Estat?stica para o tratamento adequado dos dados utilizados. Ademais, os procedimentos espec?ficos da pesquisa emp?rica, tais como a realiza??o de entrevistas junto aos agentes sociais envolvidos com a agricultura no estado e a utiliza??o de t?cnicas observacionais, possibilitaram a identifica??o e compreens?o da complexidade do uso agr?cola do territ?rio do Rio Grande do Norte, marcado pelas coexist?ncias de n?veis t?cnicos e temporalidades. / In recent decades, Brazilian agriculture has shown a new technical and social standard production model from the increasing incorporation of new scientific and informational contents, characteristics of the current historical moment, in agricultural technical systems, process that mean by technological improvement of agriculture. However, we must emphasize the selective character that marks this process, which occurs unevenly in space and time, by favoring certain areas of the territory, agricultural products and categories of producers. In this perspective, the position we stand here, while research problem, is that while there are in Rio Grande do Norte, empirical object of research, areas that stand having higher technical levels (in science and information) in agriculture, there is a set of natural elements of the newborn, which when combined, conditioning to make particular the realization of agricultural technification process, making the state one rarefaction area that falls in a different manner in the technical and territorial divisions of the Brazilian agricultural work. From this premise, the present research was mainly aimed to analyze the process of agricultural technification in Rio Grande do Norte, in the technical-scientific-informational period, with special attention to reverberation of this process in the configuration and the agricultural use of the territory. It was developed a literature review on the use of territory and agricultural technical systems, associated with the use of secondary data, mainly obtained from the official agencies, such as IBGE, FIERN and EMPARN, as well attention at the use of specific methodological procedures of Statistics for the appropriate treatment of the data used. In addition, specific procedures of empirical research, such as conducting interviews with social agents involved in agriculture and the use of observational techniques made it possible to identify and understand the complexity of the agricultural use of Rio Grande do Norte's territory, marked by coexistences technicians and temporalities levels.
