According to recent research, the high number of livestock related businesses in Brazilian agribusiness raises and justifies concerns about economic risks because businesses start and end without the feasibility expected by the contracting parties, which negatively impacts contractual incentives. The concern is high in face of a global chain of requirements, with elaboration processes that are increasingly sophisticated and sustainable. Thus, contract law exerts relevance in the coordination of agro-industrial systems, developing, through them, the economic and operational interactions and the stabilization mechanisms allied to technological development and innovation. In this scenario, the research has as object the rural integration contract of Law 13.288/2016. As a problem, the economic insecurity inherent in the chain of obligation and enforceability of these legal relations. As a general objective, to present an adequate legal response to the problem of liquidity of this contract from the understanding, application and use of Smart Contract and Blockchain as a guarantee of the contractual operation, from the grazing of the animal, until the delivery to its final recipient.
