Conteúdo: 	The research sought to determine the total production range within which small ruminants are produced by smallholders in the sertao of Ceara. It was found that prevailing rainfall conditions were very important in determining the relative importance of crop and livestock production. Within the sector of livestock production, production strategies varied according to the size of the production unit. Goats were highly desired but very seldom produced by the smallest producers. The production calculus of small producers changes both as a function  of size and rainfall. In order to survive, small producers must engage in a broad range of production so that they can shift their production emphasis in accordance to prevailing conditions. The loss of such a flexibility jeopardizes their long term viability. The central conclusion of the research is that it is both unlikely and undesirable that the small producer of the sertao of Ceara increase significantly his production of small ruminants.
