Abstract

With the current importance of the crops sugarcane and corn in Brazil's energy situation and the development of simulation and attempt to forecast crop, studies with software that perform this function are increasingly important for further development of the sector productive in agriculture. Thus, this research project aims to evaluate the application of DSSAT through CANEGRO and CERES-Maize models for crops sugarcane and corn, respectively, in the region of Piracicaba / SP evaluating irrigation management to current climate scenario and the future scenario through a sensitivity analysis for evaluating changes resulting from these managements.
