Análise da cadeia produtiva da soja no Estado de Goiás com ênfase nas operações logísticas

Abstract

This paper is about the analysis of the soybean production chain in the state of Goias, with emphasis on logistics operations. Was made using descriptive statistics and analysis methods. Through the construction and observation State of Goias maps, highlighting the soybean production and logistics operation means. The data for the preparation of the study were collected from the governmental and nongovernmental agencies. Then underwent statistical methods through simple linear regression and multivariate statistics for modeling chain. Through analysis both descriptive, as statistics, we found production growth over the years, the productivity and the increase in planted areas. Growth analysis was made of the capacity of the stores static over the years. With the analysis results, it was possible made out the forecast production chain behavior and its relationship with the logistics operations for years to come. Came to the conclusion that soybean production growth rate is higher than the growth of the static capacity of the warehouses. Soy is transported primarily through road transport, rail transport is not used for soy transport, which increases transportation costs. The job then becomes suggestion for future investments in logistics infrastructure in the State of Goias, as the forecasts made by the analysis justifying the need for investment to reduce logistics costs the soy production chain.
