The human environment intervenience aiming the progress and the yields increases has been causing social, economic and environmental unbalance. Since the nineties, the raise of environmental conciousness has induced the search for higher production, with a lower environmental impact, redefining a new vision of the natural resources economic exploitation. Brazil has a clear tradition in developing technologies for agriculture. Embrapa, the Brazilian Corporation for Research in Agriculture develops research offering its results, products and services to the society. However, part of these tecnologies are not intensely adopted by the society resulting in investment losses and consequent delay in the country development. As a result of Embrapa´s research center for the coastal tablelands activities there is the Curadermite a drug useful in live stock hoofs infections healing. This current research intended to identify and analyse the limiting factors for adoption and insertion of Curadermite in the livestock industry activities in the northeast of Brazil. The data was a result of a research survey carried out with producers, extension service people, researchers and statistical poles available at IBGE and Embrapa. The analisis of Curadermite impact considered the methodology of strenght decision multicriterion, with Macbeth approaching. The study revealed the khowledge limitation of Curadermite in Bahia and Sergipe States; well as in the scientific and academic medium; and a conflict of interests and discrepancies between the product manufactures and the consumers regarding the many factors that might refrain the complete adoption of the technology. This case study reveals the necessity of a detailed analysis as well as a strategical review in the marketing and in the comercialization of Embrapa´s tecnologies. This research presents, as inovation, the adaptation of the Macbeth tecnology for use in impacting analysis based on field survey data. It was considered as a efficient tool to the equiliibrium and ponderation of the impact evaluation of the tecnology adoption on this study.
