To that end, we evaluated the economic gains made by producers of rum that had adopted the technique of aging, a technique that has been studied by the Department of Foods and Nutrition, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, UNESP / Araraquara and disseminated to producers of rum from the project Training of Small Cachaça of São Paulo. To conduct research, and a literature review traced a history of the project and finally made a field survey with cachaça producers participating in the project. The study proved the end of its economic gains with the aging of the product by smallholders proving, in this case, the efficiency of the process of technology transfer conducted by an extension project

Resumo:O objetivo central desta pesquisa foi mostrar que a transferência de tecnologia, quando conduzida por meio de uma atividade de extensão universitária, apresenta resultados efetivos. Para tanto, foi avaliado os ganhos econômicos obtidos por produtores de cachaça que adotaram a técnica do envelhecimento, técnica esta pesquisada pelo Departamento de Alimentos e Nutrição da Faculdade de Ciências Farmacêuticas da UNESP/Araraquara e disseminada aos produtores de cachaça pelo projeto de "Capacitação de Pequenos Produtores de Cachaça do Estado de São Paulo". Para a condução da pesquisa, além de uma revisão bibliográfica, foi traçado um histórico do projeto e por fim realizada uma pesquisa de campo com os produtores de cachaça participantes do projeto. O estudo constatou ganhos econômicos obtidos quando o envelhecimento do produto é adotado pelos pequenos produtores comprovando, neste caso, a eficiência do processo de transferência de tecnologia conduzido por um projeto de extensão / Abstract: The objective of this research was to show that the transfer of technology, when conducted by a university extension activity, presents effective results.
