PERFIL PRODUTIVO E DINÂMICA ESPACIAL DA INDÚSTRIA GOIANA (1999-2007)

Abstract

The present study aims to characterize the profile of the industry of the state of Goiás and its spatial dynamics in the period of 1999 to 2007. In addition, we seek to analyze the potential impact of major industrial activities on the production structure in the state. For this, it sought support on classical theories of industrial location and regional development theory, to work later the data for the industrial sector, from the Annual Industrial Survey, IBGE, about invoicing of Sefaz-GO, and the GDPs of Municipalities, from SEPLAN-GO. So, it was found that the industry of the state has significant weight in intensive segments in natural resources - such as food and mining - in work - although they have been losing participation across Goiás' industry - and there are intensive segments in emerging scale. It was also found, in terms of space, that there has been a decentralization of industrial activity with share gains of the interior over the metropolitan area. This movement has been progressing, especially towards some municipalities that have a strong ability to bias or cities near the poles, especially regarding those intensive industrial sectors in labor and scale. A second vector of decentralization points to counties with significant advantages in the availability/production of natural raw materials, especially in the sectors of mining and sugar. Finally, it was found that nine industrial activities, among the sixteen analyzed, have more than 30% of their purchases back into the state, revealing some integration with other productive activities in the state.
