This study analyzes the importance production costs knowledge for decision-making in adopting the technology of integrated pest management - IPM for sustainable and rational agricultural production. In order to identify key characteristics of farmers, this study applies a survey to a sample of irrigation farmers in the Cristalina-GO region (N = 60), in such a way that qualitative data are explored for the case of analytical categories. The analysis revealed that the farmers of the Cristalina-GO region aware of the importance of knowing the structure are agricultural production costs, the IPM is a useful technology, but of doubtful viability. There are strong reports that the producer needs more training, guidance and dissemination of more sustainable practices. Despite the provision in the IPM adoption, the attitude towards the risk of economic damage to crops has been mostly prioritized the agrochemical preventive control and somehow caused changes in the agro-ecosystem (myriad effects). The results suggest to consider rationality as the basis for decision making, and use IPM and other sustainable technologies to maximize profit by adding value to production; the spread of the IPM should be expanded. This study presents results for the direct questioning of farmers about their environmental awareness with background on its economic health. Open the question of the ac - tual non-use of IPM in everyday reasons. It shows that the irrigation farmers at Cristalina-GO dominate the preventive use of agrochemicals.
