The work aims to identify the main sources of transaction costs in the governance structures of rice industries in the State of Goiás, their characteristics, as well as how these organizations respond to these phenomena. The research is theoretical basis for New Institutional Economics, Economics of Transaction Costs starting with a review of concepts and approaches used in the study of business inside the agribusiness sector. After reviewing the literature, the rice got contextualized in the world, in Brazil and Goiás. Data about production, inventory, marketing, consumer preferences, and also changes in the market were considered in order to justify the work and inform the importance of this commodity as food.Defined and presented the characteristic of the studied object, the next step was the preparation of a questionnaire to verify the sources of transaction costs, its characteristics and the way organizations treat the phenomenon. In the results, applying the methodology described in 22% of industries installed in the State, it was found the standard of competition required by the market; which payment policies of the raw materials implemented by companies; view toward the short term, undercapitalization and low propensity to adopt technological innovations, including a disorganized institutional environment, as a reality for the vast majority of companies researched. Furthermore, consistent with the theory stated, the main sources of transaction costs relate to opportunism and main attributes of transactions: asset specificity, frequency and uncertainty. The analysis indicated that in addition to the main attributes of transactions, the nature of the coordination process implemented occurs, mainly through the market,that industries could improve coordination and reduce costs with the adoption of hybrid instruments of coordination and long and medium term contracts. But despite the lack of an improvement in coordination, Goiás industry gets the best and biggest trading margins for processed rice market in Goiás. This may be a reflection of a market with monopoly characteristics that the leader of the sector practices between producers, distributors and between companies related to the segment.
