The debate on Brazilian development, in addition to recurring since its foundation as a nation, is of updated relevance. With the Lula Government, the perspective of territorial development proposed by the Ministry of Agrarian Development (MAD) emerges, which presents a multidimensional and decentralized aspect, with methodologies aimed at social participation. At the regional and local level, the Piedmont Sustainable Family Agriculture Work and Assistance Cooperative (COFASP) is an organization that has stood out in Piemonte of Diamantina, for its role in conducting the territorial policy implemented by the MAD, by appropriating the defended concepts to subsidize its performance, as well as to benefit from public notices published by the State. The objective is to analyze how the territorial development policies and the performance of COFASPI interfere in the dynamics of family farmers in the Piemonte Identity Territory of Diamantina - BA. In a broader perspective, we adopt the dialectical and historical method combined with the quantitative and qualitative analytical method. It was necessary to carry out a literature review, field research, observation and application of questionnaires and interviews. It is believed that the adhesion of COFASPI to public territorial development policies enhanced the cooperative's performance, positively interfering in the dynamics of family farmers in the Piemonte Territory of Diamantina - BA.
