摘要：The article analyzes the access to rural credit by women linked to the Associação Municipal de Desenvolvimento Produtivo das Mulheres Trabalhadoras Rurais e Artesãs Rurais de Santa Cruz da Baixa Verde-PE. The inclusion of these women in the National Program for Strengthening Family Agriculture - Pronaf, was analyzed from the theoretical categories gender relations and sexual division of labor. It is a qualitative research, in which the semi-structured interview was the main instrument of data collection. The analysis was based on the theoretical methodological assumptions of Discourse Analysis (AD) elaborated by Foucault and Dijk. The results showed that, in spite of the advances in the access of these women to the credit of Pronaf, it is operationalized, based on the dialogue and the contributions made by the respective partners. In this way, the hierarchy of power is maintained in the process of managing these economic resources, but they have extended cultural, political and decision-making spaces.
