O Brasil tem políticas específicas direcionadas aos mercados agrícolas, sendo a Política de Garantia de Preços Mínimos uma das principais e mais antigas. Objetiva-se, por meio de Modelos de Intervenção, captar o efeito dos instrumentos Prêmio para Escoamento de Produto (PEP) e Prêmio Equalizador Pago ao Produtor (PEPRO) sobre os preços do milho no estado de Mato Grosso, principal produtor deste grão. Os resultados demonstram que as intervenções via PEP e PEPRO apresentam pouco efeito sobre os preços, de 2009 a 2016.
The present article aims to indicate the peculiarities and contradictions found in the price subsidy policies in Brazilian agriculture in the last decade. Despite State efforts carried out through the Minimum Prices Guarantee Policy (PGPM, in the original Portuguese), they have not been a good alternative for several producers. The Austrian School interpretation indicates that the information is not available in a homogenous way to economic agents and price interventions regarding the grant of subsidies, it bears unrevealed costs that raise the information asymmetry of the candidates for the minimum price policy, being unable to reach its objective of reducing such market information asymmetry.
