Abstract

This article examines the public policy landscape within the context of bioeconomy, focusing on the perspectives of key government institutions in the Brazilian state of Amazonas. It aims to understand the current situation and potential challenges related to implementing these policies. The research adopts a qualitative approach, based on interviews with representatives of state government agencies. The interviewees’ perceptions were analyzed using IRaMuTeQ software, which enabled the identification of word patterns and recurring themes. The results offer a broader view of the bioeconomy in Amazonas and support the hypothesis that, according to government agency representatives, public policies for bioeconomy in the state are insufficient to support the development of this sector.

Keywords: Amazonas; public policies; economy; bioeconomy; IRaMuTeQ.
