ABSTRACT The objective of this survey was to analyze the competitiveness and economic efficiency of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) production system in the southern of Bahia, through by the Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM). The analysis was divided into four categories: profitability analysis; efficiency analysis; protection analysis; and net transfer of policies. The results it possible to affirm that rubber tree production system is a profitable and competitive activity, in the long term, from a private and social point of view. However, the results point out that producers are penalized for the presence of political measures, which focus on product price and productive inputs. In the sensitivity analysis, it was observed that the indicators are sensitive to the fluctuations in the exchange rate and the social income, thus the changes in the price of natural rubber have a strong impact on determining the competitiveness of this productive system.
