Resumo
Brazil stands as the largest exporter of beef, and Goiás stands out as the second largest exporter state, third in beef production and quarter in effective herd, according to 2008 data
(SEPIN, 2009a). Because of the importance of this activity to the State economy and the currency and relevance of the theme, we chose to comparatively analyze the competitiveness
of agro-industrial exporting chains of beef in the State of Goiás. We started from the assumption that export food chains (formed from the slaughtering units) of beef in Goiás present settings, actors, resources and different transactions, which facilitates the design of differentiated chains. In addition, we started with the assumption that the slaughterhouses are
the dynamizing actors and that the beef exporting chains in Goiás realize competitive advantages. We analyzed the areas of production (beef cattle), slaughter and processing (refrigerators), and distribution and consumption. Competitive analysis has been developed by drivers and sub-factors of competitiveness, which included 20 drivers and 146 sub-factors,
considering the three segments. Their assessment was conducted from the perspective of slaughter and processing segment (refrigerators). In addition, we used secondary data and interviews with key actors. Through the data collected, it was found that the chains, even inserted a single geographical clipping, have different characteristics, such as: physical
infrastructure, economic structure, management, market share, size of transactions, types of distribution channels, structure of distribution in foreign markets, types of transport, types of
slaughtering, among others. Regarding coordination, the opinions of respondents disagreed, demonstrating clearly that there is no coordination defined in chain, but that the slaughters
and processors are the strongest candidates do coordinate the whole chain. Even with differences in the designs of the two chains, the marks awarded to the drivers (three segments)
by two refrigeration units, in most cases followed a similar trend, although not identical assignments of notes. It can be stated from the data that the two reviewed exporter chains
have a competitive advantage. However, the livestock production sector had the lowest scores, demonstrating that the State of Goiás, even with comparative advantages, requires
changes in management, use of more advanced technologies, and creating incentives for government actions that may be implemented. The other segments, even with the competitive
advantages, require joint action in order to maintain their competitive position, and try to it. Some suggestions for joint activities involving the private and public sector were drawn up,
namely: support and encourage the technological advancement of the production process and management of farms in the State of Goiás; coordination of production by market demand,
adding value beef; improved system of regulation and supervision, cooperation between actors in the chain, diversification of markets for meat products, tax incentives, and improving distribution logistics.
