The objective of this study was to analyze the economic viability of beef cattle production in the breeding phase on a rural property located in the state of Maranhão. The study was conducted in seven stages. First, a brief market analysis was carried out. The second stage focused on defining the project’s technical characteristics. Next, in the third and fourth stages, expenditures and revenues were surveyed, respectively. In the fifth stage, a cash flow statement was prepared based on the information obtained in the previous stages. In the sixth stage, economic viability indicators were calculated using the values presented in the cash flow. Finally, based on the indicator results, a conclusion was drawn regarding the economic viability of beef cattle production in the breeding phase. The results show that beef cattle production in the breeding phase is economically viable for the case study in question. Considering the investor’s profile for this project, it is concluded that undertaking the investment is viable as a strategy for diversifying asset risk.
