Aquaculture is economically significant, contributing to healthy food production, income generation, and employment, while addressing poverty and hunger. However, this activity faces challenges from environmental disasters, such as the collapse of the Fundão dam on November 5, 2015, in Mariana, Minas Gerais (MG). This study investigates the disaster’s impact and socioeconomically characterizes the region's aquaculture farmers and activities. Between June 2021 and April 2022, 82 closed questionnaires were conducted along a 5 km stretch of the Doce river. The data highlight key factors related to the activity, the production chain, and the role of formal and non-formal institutions. This study lays the groundwork for future research and identifies critical points of public interest, especially for public policy initiatives.
