Abstract in Portuguese
O Brasil possui um mercado interno potencial para o consumo de alimentos, principalmente para as carnes. A carne já faz parte da alimentação dos brasileiros e sua demanda está ligada a vários fatores, como preços, qualidade, aspectos nutricionais, preferência, gosto e, principalmente, a restrição orçamentária, ou seja, a renda. A fim de determinar o quanto a renda impacta o consumo de carnes, buscou-se no presente estudo estimar as elasticidades-renda da demanda de carne bovina, suína e de frango, no Brasil e suas regiões. As elasticidades foram obtidas por meio do ajustamento de uma poligonal com três segmentos. Os coeficientes de elasticidade-renda do dispêndio, calculados para as carnes de forma geral, foram sempre menores do que 1, sendo a carne bovina, responsável pelos valores extremos: a de primeira, próxima de 1 e a de segunda, próxima de zero. As altas elasticidades obtidas para a carne bovina de primeira e também para a carne suína indicam que há maiores aumentos nas despesas de ambas as carnes, quando há uma variação positiva na renda da população. Para a carne bovina de segunda e para a carne de frango o impacto é menor. Por fim, pode-se inferir, tendo-se observado em muitos casos elasticidades decrescentes de acordo com o aumento de renda, que uma redistribuição desta poderia levar a um aumento significativo do consumo de carnes. Este estudo pode fundamentar as estratégicas de mercado de empresas do setor de carnes, tanto industrial como varejistas. Verifica-se expansão na produção e exportação nos três mercados estudados e as elasticidades estimadas servem de base para análises prospectivas sobre o consumo doméstico.

Abstract in English
Brazil has a potencial domestic market for food consumption, mainly for meat. Meat is already a part of the Brazilian eating habit and its demand is connected to several factors, like prices, quality, nutritional aspects, preferences, taste and, mainly, to budget restriction, that is, the income. To determine how much the income impacts on the meat consumption, this work estimated the income-elasticities of beef, pork and poultry meat demand in Brazil and its regions. The elasticities were obtained by fitting a three-segment polygonal curve. The income elasticities coefficients, calculated for meat, were always below 1, being beef responsible to extreme values: the beef of first quality is near 1 and the beef of second quality, near zero. The high elasticities for beef first and also for pork indicates that there are bigger increases in the expenditures of both kinds of meat, when there is a positive variation in the population income. To the beef of second quality and to the poultry meat the impact is smaller. Finally, the study infers, noticing in many cases decreasing elasticities according to the increasing income, that a redistribution of this could get a significative increase of the meat consumption. This study can base market?s strategies of meat companies, as industrial as retailer. It also shows expansion in the production and export in the three studied markets and the obtained elasticities can be used to the previous analysis about domestic consumption.
