Objetivo - Analisar estratégias de servitização vigentes e potenciais, sob a perspectiva dos produtores rurais do Oeste do Paraná, em relação aos seus fornecedores de insumos e equipamentos agrícolas. Metodologia- O estudo conta com uma abordagem qualitativa e exploratória, com base em entrevistas aplicadas à produtores rurais que atuam na produção de grãos e que consomem produtos e serviços relacionados ao fornecimento de insumos para suas lavouras. Resultados- gerencialmente, observou-se que os produtores não mostraram fidelidade exclusiva à determinada marca de equipamento ou insumo agrícola, mas consideram a oferta de serviços de pós-venda e assistência técnica de qualidade na decisão. Foram identificados novos serviços demandados pelos produtores e, tais serviços, podem favorecer a compra de produtos dos mesmos fornecedores. Há gaps que permitem explorar oportunidades quanto à servitização, dado que nem todos os serviços esperados têm sido supridos pelos fornecedores. Originalidade- Esta pesquisa se destaca pela análise da servitização do ponto de vista de produtores rurais em relação aos fornecedores de máquinas e insumos agrícolas, e identifica novas oportunidades no maior uso de tecnologias, maior transparência e o compartilhamento de conhecimento técnico, melhoramento de assistência técnica e pós-venda com preços mais acessíveis.
Purpose – To analyze current and potential servitization strategies, from the perspective of rural producers in the West of the Brazilian state of Parana in relation to its inputs and agricultural equipment. Design/methodology/approach – The study has a qualitative and exploratory approach, based on interviews with rural producers who work in grain production and use products and services related to the supply of inputs for their crops. Findings – Managerially, it was found that producers did not show exclusive loyalty to a certain brand of equipment or agricultural input, but consider the offer of after-sales services and quality technical assistance in the decision. New services demanded by producers were identified and these services may favor purchasing products from the same suppliers. There are gaps that allow exploiting opportunities in terms of servitization, given that not all services that were expected to have been supplied, were supplied by suppliers. Originality/value – This study stands out for its analysis of servitization from the point of view of rural producers in relation to suppliers of agricultural machinery and inputs. It identifies new opportunities in the greater use of technologies, greater transparency and sharing of technical knowledge, improvement of technical assistance and post-sales service at more affordable prices.

Abstract
Purpose – To analyze current and potential servitization strategies, from the perspective of rural producers in the West of the Brazilian state of Parana in relation to its inputs and agricultural equipment. Design/methodology/approach – The study has a qualitative and exploratory approach, based on interviews with rural producers who work in grain production and use products and services related to the supply of inputs for their crops. Findings – Managerially, it was found that producers did not show exclusive loyalty to a certain brand of equipment or agricultural input, but consider the offer of after-sales services and quality technical assistance in the decision. New services demanded by producers were identified and these services may favor purchasing products from the same suppliers. There are gaps that allow exploiting opportunities in terms of servitization, given that not all services that were expected to have been supplied, were supplied by suppliers. Originality/value – This study stands out for its analysis of servitization from the point of view of rural producers in relation to suppliers of agricultural machinery and inputs. It identifies new opportunities in the greater use of technologies, greater transparency and sharing of technical knowledge, improvement of technical assistance and post-sales service at more affordable prices.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
