This study aimed to analyze the potential for sustainable development for family farming as an alternative for minimizing waste from the food produced. This qualitative and exploratory research, through a survey carried out in the Scopus, Web of Science and Scielo databases between 2017 and 2023, sought which methodologies allow family farming to establish a more sustainable food production system. The research provided important information about research into more sustainable food production models that aimed not only to generate income, but also to strike a balance between family farming and the environment. The methodologies that can be adopted by family farming must include the foundations of sustainability. These resources can range from simple practices to the adoption of sophisticated technologies in farmers' daily lives; which favors the implementation of a production model that is healthier for the environment. We conclude that the adoption of sustainable processing and methodologies that culminate in meeting the Sustainable Development Goals is a viable means for adequate use of the natural resources necessary to carry out the activity, allowing better use of the raw materials produced and consequently of the resources and ecosystems used.
