Sumario:For over five decades the Theory of Social Representations (TSR), introduced by Serge Moscovici, suggests that the interaction between the subject, object and society generates modifications contained in the conceptions of the group, leading to the construction of social practices by this group and at the same time, influence their behavior. The aim of this study was to overlook the literature regarding Brazilian social representations (SR) about organic foods for farmers. A search of scientific articles within the last 15 years including theses and dissertations was made using Scielo, BDTD, Google Scholar and Lume. During this period, the most discussed topic was SR by farmers, with 11 papers addressing the topic. In relation to SR about organic food, six texts were found. Representational content more often found in this theme was: “Organic foods are healthy”; “Does not use chemicals”; “Natural products”; “Provides for people’s health and better conditions”; “Healthy plant”; “Organic fertilizer”; “Use of material and natural insecticides”; “Ethical and moral values”; “Protect life”; “Family health and consumers”; “Nutritious and non-toxic”; “Light food”; “No poison, no preservative”. This content points to large structural lines of SR: a biological dimension, associated to health; a technical dimension, associated with forms of production, the use of pesticides and organic methods; and an ethical dimension associated with the protection of life and nature. The study also points out the lack of national literature on the subject.
