Countries in development and developed countries are discussing the production of bio combustibles as a way to replace petroleum products both in the context of sustainability and in the domain of economics. Accordingly, this dissertation sought to investigate how the production management of the mini plants of oil extraction and bio-diesel production, based on family farms, is monitoring its processes and contributing to the company's performance in study, especially considering the issues related to the Planning and Control of the Production (PCP). In this work, outlined in the form of case study, additionally has been carried out a bibliographic search in the production management domain. As study tools, they were used the direct observation, the unstructured interview with technicians and the documental research. Therefore, these field activities allowed a better knowledge about the production management of those mini plants. The results of this research indicated that this management could be more effective if it had additional resources regarding finances and raw materials. In addition, ganging up these results with the direct observations and technical information about production, it is concluded that the production management in the mini power plant is inefficient, requiring an appropriate system of PCP to allow a greater productivity.
