0311/2020 - Baixa variedade na disponibilidade domiciliar de frutas e hortaliças no Brasil: dados das POF 2008-2009 e 2017-2018 Low variety of fruits and vegetables available in Brazilian households: dataPOF 2008-2009 and 2017-2018
O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar a quantidade e a variedade de frutas e hortaliças adquiridas nos domicílios brasileiros em 2008-09 e 2017-18 e segundo regiões e classes de rendimento em 2017-18. Foram utilizados dados das Pesquisas de Orçamentos Familiares referentes a disponibilidade domiciliar de frutas e hortaliças. A quantidade anual per capita adquirida de cada item alimentar foi transformada em valores diários. Foram descritas as médias da quantidade absoluta (grama/per capita/dia) e relativa de cada tipo de fruta e hortaliça para o Brasil (nos dois períodos) e segundo regiões e renda (em 2017-18). Verificou-se baixa aquisição de frutas e hortaliças para o Brasil (54,4g e 42,7g em 2008-09; 49,7g e 37,4g em 2017-18, respectivamente), e em todas as regiões e classes de renda analisadas. O Sul apresentou a maior aquisição e o Norte a menor; a quantidade adquirida aumentou com o aumento da renda. Seis tipos de frutas (banana prata, maçã, banana d’agua, laranja pera, melancia e mamão) e três de hortaliças (tomate, cebola e cenoura) representaram mais de 50% da aquisição total no Brasil, sendo semelhante em todos os estratos analisados. A aquisição de frutas e hortaliças no Brasil foi baixa e apresentou pouca variação. Esse cenário se reproduziu em todas as regiões e faixas de renda.

Abstract:
The objective of our study was to characterize the amount and the variety of fruits and vegetables (FV) available in Brazilian households in 2008-09 and 2017-18 and according to regions and income classes in 2017-18. We used datathe Household Budget Survey regarding household availability of FV, and in 2017-18, Brazilian regions, and six income classes. The annual per capita amount purchased of each food item was transformed into a daily amount. We analyzed the absolute (gram/per capita/day) and the relative amount of each type of FV in Brazil (both years) and according to regions and income (in 2017-18). It was verified a low amount of fruits and vegetables purchased in Brazil (54.4g e 42.7g in 2008-09; 49.7g and 37.4g in 2017-18, respectively) and in all regions and income classes. The South presented the highest purchased amount while the North the lowest one; the quantity of FV increased as income increased. Six types of fruits (“prata” banana, apple, “d’água” banana, “pera” orange, watermelon, and papaya) and three types of vegetables (tomato, onion, and carrot) represented about 50% of the total acquisition in Brazil, which was similar in all analyzed strata. The acquisition of fruits and vegetables in Brazil was low and presented low variety. This scenario was regardless of region or income class.
