A carne suína é uma das mais antigas formas de alimentação humana, tendo em vista que a espécie foi domesticada há 5000 a.c., na China e em outras regiões da Ásia. A sua natureza de caráter adaptável, porte e rusticidade permitiram a fácil domesticação, que foi anterior a de outros animais, como por exemplo, os bovinos. O atual estudo tem como base a análise do consumo de carne suína no Brasil, que está abaixo da média mundial e de outros países no ranking de grandes produtores desse alimento. Tendo isso em vista, é possível que haja restrições por parte dos consumidores relacionadas a esse tipo de carne, alguns fatores serão avaliados nesse trabalho, abordando essa problemática. O presente artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar o comportamento dos consumidores e os possíveis fatores que restringem o consumo de carne suína no município de Dom Pedrito, RS. Para o levantamento dos dados, foi utilizado um questionário elaborado no site Survey Monkey, software desenvolvido para coleta de dados em pesquisas. Após aplicação dos questionários, foi possível, através dos dados, elucidar algumas questões sobre o consumo de carne suína em Dom Pedrito, RS, sendo que foi respondido um total de 101 questionários. Após análise e discussão dos dados obtidos, foi possível avaliar que o consumo de carne suína em Dom Pedrito, RS, no grupo de consumidores não é influenciado por possíveis restrições de consumo, tais como, ser um alimento com alto teor de gordura, de difícil digestão entre outros. Mas sim, é consequência do hábito de consumo e forte influência da cultura local, onde a preferência é dada a outras proteínas, como carne bovina e ovina.

Analysis of pork consumption in the city of Dom Pedrito, Brazil
ABSTRACT
Pork is one of the oldest forms of human food, since the species was domesticated 5000 BC in China and other parts of Asia. Its adaptive nature, size and rusticity allowed for easy domestication, which was earlier than other animals, such as cattle. The current study is based on the analysis of pork consumption in Brazil, which is below the world average and other countries in the ranking of large producers of this food. Considering this, it is possible that there are restrictions on the part of the consumers related to this type of meat, some factors will be evaluated in this work, addressing this problem. The main objective of this article is to analyze the behavior of consumers and the possible factors that restrict pork consumption in the municipality of Dom Pedrito, RS. In order to collect the data, a questionnaire was used in the Survey Monkey site, software developed for data collection in surveys. After applying the questionnaires, it was possible, through the data, to elucidate some questions about pork consumption in Dom Pedrito, RS, and a total of 101 questionnaires were answered. After analyzing and discussing the data obtained, it was possible to evaluate that the pork consumption in Dom Pedrito, RS, in the consumer group is not influenced by possible consumption restrictions, such as being a high fat food, difficult digestion among others. But it is a consequence of the habit of consumption and strong influence of the local culture, where preference is given to other proteins such as beef and sheep.
