Analysis of technical and socioeconomic relationships in the agro-industry of Northeast Brazil
Northeastern agro-industry, as other economic activities, shows marked heterogeneities, either by high or low socioeconomic and technical assistance levels. The present study aimed to analyze the relationships between technical and socioeconomic variables for the northeastern agroindustry. The data are from the 2017 Brazilian agricultural census for agricultural establishments with rural agroindustry. The method used was the canonical correlation model. The descriptive results confirmed a low level of technical and socioeconomic assistance. The empirical method allowed to verify that the first canonical pair was responsible for the highest correlation between its variables. The socioeconomic profile was the most influenced by the dependent variables – owner, agribusiness revenue, and other income of the establishment –, since they were the most explained ones by the set of variables, in the first canonical function. The technical profile was more influenced by the following variables: food supplementation with agro-industrial by-products; and technical guidance from the S system from integrator companies, from private planning companies, as well as from the producer himself.
