Under the traditional classification into primary, secondary and tertiary sectors, the value of Agriculture Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is underestimated since the products generated upstream (inputs, implements and machines) and downstream (processing, transformation and distribution) are not computed in this statistic. In order to solve this problem, several recent studies, using the concept of Agribusiness, a term coined by Davis and Goldberg in 1957, and representing the sum of all activities related to agriculture, have sought to estimate the value of agricultural GDP considering this activity as the core of a much larger economic system called Agribusiness and Agro-industrial Complex (CAI). In this work, we attempted to quantify the GDP of the sugar and alcohol sector both for the Northeast and for Brazil, and the participation of the region in GDP composition of this sector in Brazil. The results show that the GDP of this sector accounts for 9.21% of regional GDP. In Brazil, this share is 6.91%. Given that the industry in the Northeast accounts for 15.57% of the national GDP of this activity. ____________________________________ RESUMOSob a classificação tradicional em setores primário, secundário e terciário a agropecuária tem o valor do Produto Interno Bruto -PIBsubestimado uma vez que os produtos gerados a montante (insumos, implementos e máquinas) e a jusante (processamento, transformação e distribuição) não são computados nessa estatística. Objetivando equacionar essa distorção, diversos trabalhos recentes, utilizando-se do conceito de Agribusiness -termo cunhado por Davis e Goldberg em 1957 e que representa a soma de todas as atividades ligadas à agropecuária, têm buscado dimensionar o valor do PIB agropecuária considerando essa atividade como o núcleo de um sistema econômico muito mais amplo e denominado de Agronegócio ou Complexo Agroindustrial (CAI). Os resultados mostram que o PIB desse setor representa 9,21% do PIB regional e, no Brasil, essa participação é de 6,91%. Sendo que a indústria no Nordeste reponde por 15,57% do PIB nacional dessa atividade.
