Caracterização do mercado de bovino cultura de corte mato-grossense e formação de preços entre 2020 e 2022

Abstract

The present work deals with the characteristics and price formation of meat from Mato Grosso during the pandemic. Initially, the current panorama of beef cattle breeding in the state of Mato Grosso is analyzed, bringing the problem of how the margins of commercialization and transmission of meat prices per link of the chains behaved, that is, both in the wholesale market and in the retail market, due to the valuation observed in the "arroba" of the fat cattle in this period. After delimiting the objectives of the research, the importance of this theme for society is addressed, since the final consumer is the one who always observes the price variations in the value of beef. Thus, the research has as expected result that the margins of the market were higher in the wholesale market, since this market is able to adjust the price more easily when there are sudden changes, as observed during the pandemic. With a brief theoretical and methodological foundation, the text seeks to demonstrate the present literature on the subject and the use of statistical econometric models of ordinary least squares that can serve as a basis to prove or disprove the proposed hypothesis.
