Ferramentas de comercialização utilizadas pelos produtores de soja de Primavera do Leste - MT

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the trading strategies and the difficulties encountered by the soybean producers from Primavera do Leste - MT in the development of appropriate strategies to manage the economic risks of their business. The results obtained demonstrated that the producers in the surveyed region, are mostly considered to have a conservative profile, which tend to opt for traditional risk management tools, preventing situations where the mechanisms are complex and demand larger attention and knowledge about its operation. It was also possible to determine that one of the limiting factor to the expansion to use additional tools to mitigate business risks, is the lack of knowledge and / or specific training for producers, once that the lack of capacity was one of the pointed items in the research as being deficient in the region.
