Assuming as a premise the integration with another transportation mode, and assuming the city of Sorriso, the greatest soy manufacturer of the State of MT as the origin, the intermodal mathematic model of minimization of origin-destination transportation cost was applied. For such, the optimization software GUSEK was used, which allows the solution of models of Linear Programming or Mixed Integer Linear Programming. Six intermodal routes were found and the number of voyages for the destination ports were: Santos - SP (26.277.800 voyages/year - modes: Road -Railway), Paranaguá - PR (4.865.560 voyages/year- modes: Road - Railway), São Francisco do Sul - SC (8.278.890 voyages/year- modes: Road - Railway), Vitória - ES (4.062.220 voyages/year - modes: Road - Railway), Manaus - AM (7.990.830 voyages/year - modes: Road - Waterway) e São Luiz - MA (226.667 voyages/year - modes: Road -Railway).
