Abstract: Various computer programs were developed to calculate the cost of the coffee harvest. However, few address the costs of coffee in its post-harvest stage. This study was aimed to develop a system for calculating the cost of the coffee postharvest to facilitate decision making regarding the most cost-effective post-harvest processes. Thirty-four farmers in southern Minas Gerais state answered a questionnaire designed to validate this system. The use of a decision support system showed that the simulated costs in the post-harvest stage were not statistically different from the costs informed by the representatives of the selected farms.
