Revista Econômica do Nordeste, v. 43, n. 1, p. 109-123, jan./mar. 2012.0100-4956e-2357-9226http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/17754This paper applies the method of test Asymmetry in Price Transmission (ATP) to the market for cattle, particularly between the prices of cattle and calf. The model proposed is an adaptation developed by Griffith and Piggott (1994) for the Australian market, however using Structural Vector Autoregression (SVAR). The results allow to confirm that there is an asymmetry in price transmission in the market analyzed, i.e, the price of cattle respond differently to increases and reductions in the calf.porAcesso AbertoTeste de assimetriaStructural vector autoregressionPreço boi gordoPreço bezerroTest asymmetryStructural vector autoregression (SVAR)Cattle pricesCalf pricesArtigo
