Odemira. Um concelho dividido entre o litoral e o interior que, em parte, devido à sua extensa dimensão e povoados dispersos, agrega diversas dinâmicas que se distinguem de freguesia para freguesia. Contudo, nem sempre o concelho se primou pela diferença e dispersão entre os seus habitantes. À semelhança do restante Alentejo, a crise no sector agrícola, que se destacou durante a vigência do regime do Estado Novo, assombrou também os campos de Odemira, agravando as condições socioeconómicas dos trabalhadores rurais e respetivas famílias, resultando num concelho repleto de angústias, o que representava um fator de união na imensidão dos campos.
Em 1974 chega a Revolução e com ela a Reforma Agrária. Procedeu-se em todo o concelho à ocupação de propriedades, reorganização fundiária e criação de Unidades Coletivas de Produção. Alguns trabalhadores rurais, que nelas participaram, uniram-se então para a concretização das novas coletividades nas quais depositaram as suas esperanças. O concelho de Odemira pautou-se pelos movimentos revolucionários, pelos desfiles reivindicativos, recrutamento de trabalhadores para as novas unidades, os pedidos de oficialização das recentes UCPs e com eles os Planos de Exploração Agrícola.
O presente estudo tem como objetivo contribuir com hipóteses de resposta às diversas problemáticas relacionadas com a Reforma Agrária à escala local, com os planeamentos para as UCPs, os trabalhadores e os resultados proporcionados. É através da reunião de informação e do preenchimento de lacunas no que concerne à formação de UCPs que iremos descodificar o contributo do concelho de Odemira para o contexto nacional da década de setenta em Portugal.
Odemira. A municipality divided between the coastal line and the countryside that, in part, due to its extensive size and dispersion between villages, brings together different dynamics that diverge from parish to parish. However, the municipality has not always been characterized by those differences. Like the rest of Alentejo, the crisis in the agricultural sector that stood out during the Estado Novo regime, also haunted the fields of Odemira, worsening the socioeconomic conditions of rural workers and their families, from which food production shortages and anguish emerged, becoming a unifying factor through the vast lands. In 1974 the Revolution arrived and with it the Agrarian Reform. Throughout the municipality agricultural estates were occupied, land was reorganized and Collective Production Units were created. The rural workers, who participated in them, associated to build the new collectivities in which they placed their hopes. The municipality of Odemira was marked by the revolutionary movements, the claiming parades, the recruitment of workers for the new units and the requests for the officialization of the recent UCPs and with them the Agrarian Exploration Plans. The present work aims to formulate hypotheses that answear various problems related to Agrarian Reform at the local scale. From the plans for the UCPs and its workers, to the results provided by the whole process. It is through the gathering of information and the filling of gaps regarding the formation of UCPs on a local scale that we will decode the part that the municipality of Odemira took in the national context of the 1970s in Portugal.
