MENGEL, Alex Alexandre  y  AQUINO, Silvia Lima de. The supply chain of tobacco as disputes field. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2017, vol.18, n.38, pp.00-00. ISSN 1515-5994.

The paper analyzes the existing conflicts in the tobacco production chain in Brazil and the strategies historically established by each agent. Therefore, we interpret the tobacco production chain as a field of disputes. As methodological tools we conducted to literature review and semi-structured interviews. Among the results, we found that, in general, the actors in the tobacco field take three types of strategies: 1) the defense of the field; 2) intermediate strategic positions mulling conflicting historical disputes in the field; 3) positions contrary to the tobacco field
