Drawing on data released by the Census of Agriculture 2006, this paper aims to identify, among all those micro-regions of northeastern Brazil where the volume of livestock movement (represented by the quantity of purchase, sale and slaughter of goats, sheep, cattle, pigs and in poultry farms) would allow a high frequency of transactions with animals - between the segments of production and processing - which would result in market governance structures. The research is grounded in two theoretical pillars: the Transaction Cost Economics (TCE), of Oliver Williamson, and the Commodity System Approach (CSA) compiled by John Davis and Ray Goldberg. The first theory is that, due to the bounded rationality of agents and the tendency to assume such an opportunistic behavior, it is impossible to fully and agents rationally anticipate outcomes of their decisions and that they protect themselves from possible flaws in the implementation of the economic transactions from the establishment of contracts between the parties involved. So that, CSA argues that the process of agricultural production can t be addressed so tight, that is, without understanding its systemic character, ranging from the decision of what and how to produce the end consumer. The tool used was exploratory factor analysis, multivariate statistical technique that allows the identification of latent factors that explain the interrelationships among the variables under study. The results showed that the cattle drive in the Northeast is a focused and dedicated event in the sense that largely takes place in a few territories and rarely stands out in a location more than one culture. Therefore, the coordination of the interface market for production / processing of agricultural products is suitable for a small number of locations in the brazilian Northeast.
