Due to the great potential of the fertilizer market in Brazil in reason of its productive characteristics, the goal of this article was to present a study about the perspective of informational flows aiming at the mapping of the relevant information inherent to the stages of the fertilizer importation process. By using the observation method, it was possible to map this information from the beginning of the process, which is the fertilizer output from the international seller to the final buyer in Brazil. The case study was conducted in an American company, with an office in the city of Paranaguá -PR (Brazil), which imports fertilizers.

Keywords: Strategic information management; Informational flow; Fertilizer import.
