This research aimed to calculate and analysis the costs of integrated system (IP) and conventional (PC) peaches production in two agricultural establishments located in the Araucária and Lapa counties - Paraná. The cost production based activities were appropriate and technical coefficients and indicators were related to the use of inputs over three years, employed per hectare and by year Management cost parameters were included, such as: estimating target cost, activity unit cost, percentage of participation in the activity of the coefficients and expenses involved in each component of the cost structure. It was divided into large groups, such as services, supplies, administrative and other supplies. The total cost per hectare in the IP orchards of IP were 5.86% and 5.05% lower than the PC cost respectively for Araucária and Lapa, PR.
