The present study aimed to characterize the transport logistics of the State of Tocantins, for the distribution of ethanol taking into account the modals road and rail. To meet this goal, this research as the purpose was descriptive. The procedure for data collection was divided into two stages: the first stage consisted of literature and documents, which have supported the development of the theoretical analysis and the results of the work. In the second stage of this work was carried out field research where questionnaires were administered with professionals specialized in the area and made interviews with public managers. As regards the analysis of data and interpretation of the results was carried out a qualitative approach. The results showed regional focus, including the characterization of logistics modal road and rail and the characterization of the transport logistics of the potential regions identified by Collicchio (2008). Describing the main parameters for agroindustrial production of cane sugar and the parameters related to the logistics of transporting ethanol. It was concluded that road transport is the most used for handling the logistics of the agricultural sector in the study, however, the rail system will be completed after a major modal to transport ethanol in Tocantins. The characterization of the logistics proved important tool to explore the region under study and to identify the factors that affect the local logistics, enabling improvement actions. It is hoped that studies in logistics sector sugarcane for ethanol production may still facilitate many improvements to the system as a whole, minimizing logistics costs and contributing to the development of the sector.
