Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz (ESALQ) (Institutional affiliation for the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Agricultural engineer at ESALQ/USP, in 1998; Master and PhD in Agronomy from the same institution, in 2000 and 2003, respectively. I served as visiting researcher at the University of Florida (2010-2011) and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (2018), United States, respectively in the areas of concentration in crop modeling and yield-gap analysis. I was a researcher at Embrapa between 2002 and 2013, professor at PUC-Campinas between 2005 and 2013 and professor at FGV-Agro between 2008 and 2013. Between August 2006 and June 2013, I was visiting professor in a graduate course and advisor at ESALQ/USP. Since August 2013 I am professor in agrometeorology and crop modeling and, in 2014, he became an associate professor at the Department of Biosystems Engineering at ESALQ/USP. I was honored by undergrad classes at PUC and ESALQ. I have been a CNPq fellow since 2010 and published more than 100 scientific papers, 6 books and more than a dozen book chapters. I have been visiting 23 countries on scientific cooperation missions, lecturer and conducting field research. Since 2005, he has been coordinating research network projects with a national scope, involving large groups of researchers. He is a leader in fundraising and managing research groups; coordinates Tempocampo System, which advises producers and companies in the soybean, maize and sugarcane sectors in forecasting yields and interpreting the climate effects on crop performance. He is president of the Brazilian Society of Agrometeorology in the period 2021-2023. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Global population will increase by 30% up to 2050. At the same time, consumption of livestock and dairy products will increase as a result of higher income per capita, and this will lead to a 50-70% increase in food demand. Brazil has a comparative advantage to help meet global food demand due to plentiful land and water resources. However, the rate of increase in average farmer yields ha…
Global population will peak 9.7 billion by year 2050, representing a 30 percent increase relative to today's population. At the same time, consumption of livestock and dairy products will increase as a result of higher income per capita. Altogether, this will lead to a 50-70% increase in food demand Brazil has a comparative advantage to help meet global food demand due to plentiful land a…

As it is a very important product economically, with applications in the food and energy industry as a renewable source, it is extremely important to study sugarcane, given that its demand has increased over the years due to the increase in the world population. Thus, aiming to understand the impacts that the various climate changes on planet Earth have been affecting on the productivity …
Sugarcane is an important source of renewable energy that has a growing demand on the world stage. Sugar is an essential component for basic food and for the food industry. Ethanol, in addition to being less expensive than gasoline, is still considered a biofuel that has a low emission of greenhouse gases. To meet the expected increase in demand for sugar and biofuels, it is necessary to …
Population growth is increasing the demand forfood worldwide, especially those of animal origin.Thus, it will be necessary to increase the productivity of areas that are already available for livestock. Although Brazil ranks among the world's largest producers of milk and beef, national livestock, which is predominantly extensive, uses mostly degraded or poorly managed pastures. The inten…

The growing population increase of the planet brings with it the challenge of raising productivity of the agricultural sector in the coming decades. Silvopastoral integration systems are an efficient alternative to reduce thermal discomfort, making it possible to increase animal production in a more sustainable way, without increasing the area. However, the insertion of the tree component…
Soybean (Glycine Max L.) is an oleaginous plant belonging to the Fabaceae family, is one of the most important crops for the production of oil and protein (FAO, 2018). In the 2017/18 harvest, Brazil produced 119 million Mg (CONAB, 2018). Agricultural development in the Brazilian Midwest has grown significantly over the past 15 years, with soybean growing at around 200% (CONAB, 2001 and 20…
Economic projections indicate that by 2050 the world's population will increase by approximately 30% and consequently, demand for food will increase, while the area available for horizontal expansion of agriculture in the world is at most 5%. This realization implies the need to raise agricultural production in a sustainable way to ensure the future food supply of humanity. The identifica…

The increase of global population and lack of available land evidences the challenge of raising the yield of the agricultural sector in the coming decades. The Silvopastoral system is an efficient alternative to intensify animal and crop production. However, the adoption of this kind of system carries a high uncertainty level about the quantitative impact caused by the addition of the tre…
Soybean is a crop of major social and economic importance for Brazil. In order to meet the increasing demand for feed protein, soybean areas have been expanding strongly over the last decade reaching areas with adverse soil and climatic conditions. The expansion of food and feed demand together with the scarcity of available new arable land for production increase raise the importance of …
Soybean (Glycine Max L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide for oil and protein pro-duction (FAO, 2018) and it is the most important crop for Brazilian economy. Agribusiness in the Brazilian Midwest has experienced significant growth in the last 15 years, especially soybean with an increase of around 200%. The prospected world population by 2050 is around 9 billion people, and f…
