RESUMO

Coffee is one of the most traditional products of the Brazilian agriculture and had a great influence on the industrialization process of economics. It is also a product which contributes significantly for generation of employment in the field mainly in the regions unsuitable for mechanization of farming. Coffee growing has past by a significant restructuration in the last few decades which has changed both the internal organization among the links of the agribusiness chain and the practices of conducting crops at the farmer s level. Alternative systems of farming have been appearing with the purpose of increasing the competitiveness of those crops. On the track of those system appears the doubts as to the economical and technical viability of each one. This work was divided into two parts, where first its was sought to identify the cropping techniques which have been being adopted and to characterize the existing doubts. Next, the making of a working model was started in the decision -analysis techniques to aid in the choice among alternative coffee -processing systems either in the traditional or special form, one of the doubts which were identified. The available decisions point out the possibility of producing a natural coffee (in the current traditional or more elaborated), either a pulped naturals or washed coffee. Those alternative, in turn, involve investments and are exposed to risk conditions since the climate may influence the results of the crop and bean quality. By mean of the research work, it was possible to identify among other results, a slight distortion among the demands of the farmers and the studies by experts, which in a lot of cases give an excessive importance to aspects regarded as trivial to the coffee growers. In addition, research has proposed to evaluate the coffee- processing systems and to identify the special coffees as a good alternative to the farmers of Southern Minas Gerais.
