| This paper analyses the potentials long run effects on the Brazilian economy of two policies in the field of the indirect taxes: a) the reduction of indirect taxes on food consumption by the households and; b) the reduction of indirect taxes on the main inputs used in the agricultural activity. The analysis is accomplished through two simulation exercises using a static inter-regional applied general equilibrium model. The benchmark year is 2001. The results of both simulations are found to be similar, except in terms of magnitude: the most intense effects are associated to the reduction the taxation on foods. Both simulations show expansion in the level of economic activity in the poorest regions of the country and reduction in the richest. They also show... |

| This study aims to analyze the competitivity of the cotton production in Brazil and United States of America (USA) in terms of production costs, taking into consideration the 2003/04 crop season. In Brazil, data were colleted in “panel conferences” in the state of Mato Grosso (Campo Novo do Parecis and Pimavera do Leste) and also in the north of the Parana state. USA’s data came from secondary sources. The results showed that Brazil has a better competitivity, with good productivity, but high costs per hectare. The risk of the culture is high, given the short margins and the sunk costs. In USA, the average productivity is smaller than in Brazil; the costs are relatively high and the margins are negative in most regions. Results show that the sustainability... |

| Tendo como escopo central demonstrar uma estimação da função lucro trans-logarítmica, o presente artigo, a partir de uma amostra de propriedades de dedicadas à avicultura de postura também calcula elasticidades de substituição entre os fatores produtivos. A amostra utilizada, coletada numa pesquisa de campo, em 2002, envolve propriedades dos estados de São Paulo, Minas Gerais e Paraná. Recorrendo à dualidade entre a função lucro e a função custo foi possível calcular as elasticidades em diferentes critérios, como o de Allen, o de Morishima e pela medida de Elasticidade Sombra. Constatou-se, em correspondência, uma oferta sensível à variações no preço do produto (ovos) e à oscilações nos preços dos insumos.... |
