“…In Brazil, the idea is that Brazilians do not consume fish because they are not used to it or do not have the habit due to the short supply (Pereira et al, 2003). However, the main factor cited as an impediment or disincentive to purchasing fish seems to be the price since respondents who do not consume or consume it less frequently cite this as a determining factor (Kubitza, 2002;Sonoda et al, 2012;Flores et al, 2014).

“…The authors found that the whole chicken was a normal good, with breast and legs as superior goods and the carcass as inferior. Sonoda et al (2012) found that neither red meat nor chicken were the main substitutes for the demand for fish, but other foods in the consumption bundle, depending on the consumer's income range. Furthermore, it was found that the demand for fish was associated with low-income families in the North-Northeast region and middle-income ones in the Centre-South, and that the low demand is simply due to few families having the habit of consuming fish in Brazil.…”

“…A pesca é uma atividade econômica, social e cultural de grande importância na Amazônia, considerada como uma das atividades produtivas mais antigas da região (LOPES, 2010;ALMEIDA, 2011;COSTA et al, 2013;FARIA-JÚNIOR, 2013) e onde os peixes têm destaque como principal fonte de proteína (ISAAC; RUFFINO, 2000;LOPES et al, 2010;FREIRE, 2014 ROCHA NETO, 2010;MACIEL, 2011;SONODA et al, 2012;SILVA et al, 2016 Nessa ótica, um conjunto de fatores (BARBOSA, 2006;KOTLER, 2006;LOPES et al, 2010, SILVA et al, 2010SANTOS;DAMASCENO, 2011;SOLOMON, 2011) influenciam a decisão do consumidor, …”
