Descrição: | In 2011, the largest Brazilian states to produce table grapes were Pernambuco and São Paulo. The region of Jales, a city located inthe northwestern region of São Paulo, is the largest producer of fine table grapes. In this region, producers work exclusively withwholesalers (CEAGESP), passing through an intermediary called mateiro. In order to verify the importance of this intermediary,the objective of the research has been to analyze and understand the functioning of institutional arrangements used by grapegrowers in the region of Jales to market their production. It was used a model that combines formal and informal institutionswith the model of Transaction Cost Economics (TCE). A questionnaire was conducted in April 2008 with 6.2% of producers ofthe region of Jales and 12.5% of the purchasers of table grapes. The sampling was non-probabilistic. Hybrid arrangements arerecommended, with necessity of guarantees for the producers. Nevertheless, formal contracts do not work well with small producers,as they do not know the wholesalers, increasing the difficulty of establishing informal guarantees. Producers considered theirproducts as delivered to the mateiros, with whom they established lasting relationships of trust. In conclusion, the mateiro is themain actor between producers and wholesalers and acts as an independent agent, although employee of the wholesaler. Relationsbetween farmers and mateiros are based on the existence of social capital, which allows the creation of informal guarantees andthe reduction of transaction costs. |
