Popis: The present study proposes to investigate historical trajectory and the experience gained by the Association for the development of agriculture, natural and African culture (AFRICARTE), with the practice of Nature Farming method in Angola for the period 2000 to 2010. The criterion for choice of institution and of interviewees was mainly the possibility of investigating possible common interests between AFRICARTE and World Messianic Church, which is the main sponsor of AFRICARTE projects. The search took as hypothesis the existence of links between the Theology of the Church World Messianic and reasoning technique of the Nature Farming. Also believed that the existence of reciprocal interests from these links has favored on many occasions, the use of the Natural Agriculture method as an instrument of public attraction to the Messianic Church World. But the work does not drop the philanthropic and altruistic character of their actions. With that, to meet the goals set by the search, due to lack of documentation of AFRICARTE and academic bibliography on the subject of Natural Agriculture was chosen the oral history method as research instrument. The choice of method was proposed exploring the theme and addresses the issues by the people who experienced the whole process of implementation of the Nature Farming. For this were chosen only the four main AFRICARTE managers due to its link with the World Messianic Church. The choice if sustains when discussing the use of Nature Farming as expansion strategy of the activities of the World Messianic Church in Angola. With this work was to bring responses, but start and enrich the debate on agriculture as well as stimulate new studies on the topic.
