The search for sustainable systems coupled with the gradual reduction of oil reserves, alternatives production are being studied in order to obtain systems economically viable, socially just, ecologically appropriate and energetically balanced. One of these alternatives is biodiesel, and, Jatropha, among energy crops with great potential productive oil for fuel, is presenting more positive scenario. The Jatropha has attracted much interest internationally and in Brazil for its high oil content (38 to 48% in the seed) and low production cost, however there is still a lack of technological information, both genetic and agronomic. This lack of information limits the increase of competitiveness. The present study aims to conduct an economic and investment analysis of Jatropha in the region of Selvíria - MS. The data were collected from the field experiments, interviews with experts and literature. To calculate the costs was used the structure of total operating cost and estimated profitability indicators. For investment analysis were estimated net present value, internal rate of return and the annual value equivalent. The results show that producer retrieves the capital invested in the 9th year of production. Although the ratio B / C was of 1.3, which may consider that in the 15-year horizon, the activity is profitable to the producer, it can be said that the activity is not a good investment option since the IRR was of 14.03%, a value unattractive. The total EAV was 360.93, because it is a positive value it is stated that the alternative is economically viable. Despite advances in the cultivation of Jatropha still require much research, not only related to technical issues such as fertilization and pest management, but also socioeconomic
