“…Strategic behavior whose objective was to achieve and maintain these benefits was the determinant for the adoption of plural forms of governance by the cattle ranches, mainly when compared with the problems of control of the parts involved in transactions. The importance of this determinant has been confirmed in other studies (Silveira et al, 2014;Feltre and Paulillo, 2015;Dias et al, 2016;Foscaches et al, 2016). However, the majority of these studies have focused on agroindustry.…”

“…The owners and operation managers responsible for buying and selling animals were interviewed using a semi-structured protocol adapted from a study by Silveira et al (2014). The interviews aimed to identify transactions with suppliers and buyers, describe the attributes of the products in each distribution channel, and define the characteristics of transactions and the determinants of the adoption of each form of governance.…”

“…Mondelli and Zylbersztajn (2008) highlighted that transactions in the beef production sector are more likely to be associated with more complex governance structures as the specificity of the assets involved increases.

Animal production systems and agribusiness Full-length research article Plurality of governance on cattle ranches: case studies in Brazil ABSTRACT-The present article investigated the plural forms of governance that have been adopted in buying and selling transactions by cattle ranches with differentiated markets. In addition, it proposes to describe and explain which determinants influence this plurality, based on the theoretical principles of transaction cost economics. The analysis was based on the observation of both upstream transactions and commitments and agreements established downstream by two ranches, both specialized in beef cattle, but with different competitive strategies. The adoption of plural forms demonstrates diverse competitive advantages, insofar as both can meet the requirements of different distribution channels or increase production capacity. The results indicated that the governance structures adopted by the ranchers studied responded to the demands of the strategies adopted for their production units. Thus, the adopted governance structures should be aligned with their strategies for the cattle ranches to be successful.

“…Moreover, the use of the plural forms ensures greater security of supply in long term. Silveira, Carrer, Carvalho, Foscaches and Saes (2014) have analyzed plural forms existence in transactions between slaughterhouses and cattle ranchers. The authors verified, only one of three industries operated plural forms, with the main motive being a company's strategic behavior.…”

ResumoO trabalho consiste em analisar os aspectos transacionais da relação entre produtores e permissionários da Ceasa-MS. Para atingir o objetivo proposto, houve a aplicação, juntamente aos permissionários da Ceasa-MS, de 78 questionários semiestruturados. Os questionários aplicados tiveram como arcabouço teórico a ECT, em conjunto com a teoria das formas plurais. Analisando as dimensões da transação entre os permissionários da Ceasa-MS e seus fornecedores, percebemos que o ativo estudado possui: (a) uma especificidade média; (b) a incerteza das transações é alta; (c) e as transações ocorrem de forma recorrente. A teoria da ECT prediz que essas transações devem ocorrer de forma híbrida, porém verificou-se que, além do uso das formas híbridas, há o uso da integração vertical e das formas plurais, sendo esta a combinação entre as formas híbridas e a integração vertical. A presença das formas plurais na Ceasa é explicada pela ambiguidade sobre a estrutura de governança mais adequada de organização e pela complexidade no monitoramento das transações. Dentre os arranjos organizacionais, foi possível verificar que o uso das formas plurais reduz o custo de transação para o permissionário da Ceasa-MS, por representar a combinação entre os pontos positivos das formas híbridas e os da integração vertical, anulando, assim, seus pontos fracos.Palavras-chave: Ceasa-MS; economia dos custos de transação; formas plurais. AbstractThis study consists of analyzing the transactional relationship between farmers and authorized contractors at Ceasa-MS. In order to reach the objective proposed by the study, 78 semi-structured questionnaires were distributed among the contractors at Ceasa-MS. The questionnaires had as a theoretical framework the TCE in conjunction with the plural forms theory. Analyzing the transaction dimensions between the farmers and contractors at Ceasa-MS, we perceived that the assets studied possess: (a) average specificity; (b) uncertainty of the transactions is high; (c) and transactions occur on a recurring basis. Keeping such dimensions in mind, the TCE theory foresees that those transactions should happen in hybrid form, however the contractors served themselves with vertical integration and plural forms, the latter being the combination of hybrid forms and vertical integration. The presence of plural forms is explained by the ambiguity in the governing structure and the complexity in the way transactions are monitored. We verified that the use of plural forms or the simultaneous use of vertical integration with hybrid forms within all organizational arrangements, to reduce the transaction cost for the contractors as the combined positive aspects of the hybrid forms and vertical integration nullify their weak points.
