Resumo(s)
Poultry production in Mozambique occupies a prominent place in the agricultural sector,
especially because it is attractive for the promotion of entrepreneurship and self-employment. These
facts are due to the short cycle and a large increase in the consumption of poultry products. However,
despite the opportunities it presents, challenges do exist, namely, the strategic organization of
producers and the access to the market, which give producers a weak capacity to compete, and
thus favoring imports to the country. To analyze competitiveness, stochastic models were used to
determine the efficiency of producers and to define good practices. The results clearly show that
producers with a more organized and well-planned structure, producing more than 2000 chickens per
cycle of production, tend to be more efficient when compared to those with less organized structures
and without commercial agreements that facilitate market access.
