RESUMO

This research has the following purposes: to characterize the patterns of seasonal variations of prices and quantities, and to determine the regions of production of the vegetables traded at CEASA-Campinas, in the period 1981 to 1990. The results obtained were compared to those provided by Entreposto Terminal de São Paulo (ETSP)-CEAGESP. Eight main products were chosen according to their relevance related to the amount and value commercialized. The products are: banana nan ica, orange (laranj a pera), lettuce, cabbage, carrot, tomato, potato and onion. The patterns of seasonal variations were defined applying the centralized changeable geometric average method. The production areas were defined by specific product schedules. A schedule was made for with each product the amount offered by each Micro Region according to the months. The data analysis shows that the price changes are connected to the offer af the products, but not exclusively. Some other factors like: market size; trade agents expectations and the kind of product, that are not considered by seasonal index, interfere on price changes. It was positively established that the main production areas of these products are the same both for CEASA-Campinas and ETSP, except for lettuce and cabbage. These two vegetables come mainly from specific areas of production close to their markets
