RESUMO

Among all economics activities, agribusiness is developing with great force in the world, stimulated mainly for the increase of the population and in the demand for food. Agribusiness studies have been the focus of academic research for quite a long time. However, those studies usually have used a theoretical background, connotations, frames of reference and methodologies slightly different of those used in the research on Supply Chain Management (SCM). Most agro-industrial studies are influenced by economics theories. They usually address questions of public policy, structures of governance and competitiveness of the industry. On the other hand, researches on SCM have a managerial concern addressing questions of operational efficiency, effectiveness, customers needs and so on. Notwithstanding differences on the research focus and theoretical frameworks, the systemic vision of the process since the production of raw materials until the delivery of the product to the end consumer is common to SCM and agro-industrial studies. The main purpose of this research is to advance in the studies of agro-industrial chains, using a management approach usually presented in the literature of supply chain management. The unit of analysis of the research is an agro-industrial chain, more specifically a food chain. The main approach will be the questions of evaluation and measurement of supply chain performance.
