Abstract: [EN] Agricultural companies base their decisions on the anticipated behavior of variables. This paper aims to analyze and model the behavior of livestock producers in relation to the adoption of marketing strategies in uncertain scenarios. Through structured questionnaires administered to cattle producers, stated preference models were developed for various strata, taking into account the number of animals. An inverse relationship was observed between income, derived from higher cattle stocks, and hypothetical and real choices of the direct marketing channel. Among the conventional variables, it was confirmed that beef cattle producers prioritize harvesting time over selling price and marketing cost. [ES] Las empresas agropecuarias basan sus decisiones en variables anticipadas. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar y modelar el comportamiento de los productores de ganado en relación con la adopción de estrategias de comercialización en escenarios inciertos Mediante cuestionarios estructurados, se desarrollaron modelos de preferencias declaradas para diversos estratos según el número de animales. Se observó una relación inversa entre ingresos, derivados de mayores existencias de ganado, y elecciones de canal de comercialización directa. Entre las variables convencionales, los productores de ganado de carne priorizan el tiempo de recolección sobre el precio de venta y el costo de comercialización.
