Abstract

This proposal aims to analyze the evolution of concentration and specialization of milk production in the microregions of the State of Sao Paulo between 2006 and 2016, subsidizing the planning and execution of policies by localized actions of public institutions and companies to support technical training, technological and management aspects of rural producers. The specialization and concentration of milk production in the microregions will be evaluated, respectively, by calculating the Locational Quotient (QL) and the Locational Gini (GL) of milk production, using the variables related to the production value in 40 microregions of the state. The methodological procedures for calculating QL and GL will be the same as those used by Marion Filho et al. (2015). In the analysis of results will be used the software STATISTICA 13.3 and Terra view 4.2.2. (AU)
