RESUMO

The agricultural and livestock markets in Brazil play important roles both for the production and the financial sectors. However, like other business, information is essential to maintain the competitiveness in the global market. Although the agribusiness sector processes high amount of information on a daily basis, it is almost always inconsistent or inaccessible. Moreover, there is little research aimed at minimizing the lack of agribusiness information available for the producers, market agents and researchers in order to develop data analyses on agribusiness, to help in the decision process. The technique commonly used in other segments, such as industries, is called Data Warehouse, which provides an environment to provide access to data and consistent information. The goals of this research were to present what researchers what they can do to perform agribusiness analysis, how to apply Data Warehouse modeling and the application of the tool to this process. To reach these goals, we evaluated two case studies. The first study used data from the livestock market, as it allowed to generate initial data for the chain and because it can be applied to other products, as well as to help the researcher to analyze using the OLAP tool. At the same line, the study about grain market was developed, and models and OLAP tools were developed to help with the particular points for this chain. Concluding, the research shows that it is viable to use Data Warehouse techniques to create an agribusiness data environment, consistent and organized, which can be expanded to new agricultural products.
