Sumario:The ostrich farming began in Brazil in 1995. The information regarding the productivity and profitability of the activity need to be clarified. This study objective to analyze the risks in the activity and the economic viability of the ostrich, using own or outsourced hatchery. From the information obtained in Sudeste region, between the years 2009 and 2010, manuals and surveys of commercial producers who develop the complete cycle (hatching, reproduction, life-cycle ostrich and commercialization), professionals and providers was possible to characterize, projection and calculations, considering an ostrich started from 4 to 40 breeding pairs, with a production average of 10 pups/female/year. The cash flows were constructed for characterizing the activity meat production, in a horizon of 10 years. The composition of the production costs and economic analysis of farms was performance, considering different forms of hatching eggs, to take decision to the risks involved. The survey of the risks and the results were determined by means of the Delphi technique, using structured questionnaires to experts working in the field of Agribusiness. The feed was the largest item of cost-sharing. The economic viability for the ostrich creation with its own hatchery, requires 36 breeding pairs, and to ostrich creation with its outsourced hatchery with 27 breeding pairs.
