“…There are several studies in the literature with the zoning of climatic risk for different crops (i.e. Physalis peruviana , 31 avocado, 32 soybean, 33 wheat, 30 beans, 34 cotton 35 and banana 36 ). Climatic zoning contributes to the reduction of production risks and consequently a reduction in yield losses.…”

BACKGROUND Peanuts are widely grown in Brazil because of their great importance in the domestic vegetable oil industry and the succession of sugarcane, soybean and maize crops, contributing to soil conservation and improvement in agricultural areas. Thus, the present study aimed to determine the zoning of peanuts' climatic risk by estimating the water requirement satisfaction index (WRSI) for the crop in Brazil. We used a historical series of data on average air temperature and rainfall between 1980 and 2016. Reference evapotranspiration was estimated using the method of Thornthwaite, and we subsequently calculated crop evapotranspiration and maximum evapotranspiration. Water balances for all stations were calculated using the method of Thornthwaite and Mather, with an available water capacity in the soil of 15, 30 and 45 mm. The definitions of suitable, unfit and restricted areas and the planting season were performed using the WRSI. RESULTS Brazil has low climatic risk areas for growing peanuts throughout the year, except for winter. The country reveals that 88.19%, 97.93%, 99.16% and 39.25% of its area is suitable for planting peanuts on planting dates in spring, summer, autumn and winter, respectively. CONCLUSION Brazil has a large part of the areas favorable to the planting of peanuts. The maximum availability of soil water at a depth of 15, 30 and 45 mm does not influence regions with respect to peanut growing in Brazil. The states of Piauí, Ceará and Bahia are the most unsuitable on the winter planting date, with an average WRSI of 0.22. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry

“…Monthly, different from other regions of Paraná state that present the rainiest month in January (CALDANA et al, 2018;CALDANA et al, 2019;NITSCHE, 2019), the basin presented the month of October with the highest pluviometric heights and the highest monthly median (Figure 04). The results exhibit significant monthly variation in precipitation in the region, suggesting the relevance of agroclimatic risk zoning and appropriate agricultural management practices.…”

“…Depending on the intensity, they can create several storms and hail occurrence (HOLLEMAN, 2001;SCAGLIONI and SARAIVA, 2004;KUNZ et al, 2009;PUNGE and KUNZ, 2016;DAFIS et al, 2017;PUNGE et al, 2017;TREFAULT et al, 2018). Their displacement through Paraná state is normally in the West to East direction, coming from Paraguay (CALDANA et al, 2018;CALDANA et al, 2019). It should be noted that the altitudes of the region also rise, in the West to East direction, which may contribute to the friction of the system with the topography (Figure 01).…”

“…In the municipality of Assis Chateaubriand, in 1988, the water deficiency in March exceeded 100 mm, while the removal of water in the soil in Toledo and São Miguel do Iguaçu, in 1985 and 2012, respectively, also exceeded 100 mm. In the dry years analyzed, the values are more alarming in the spring and summer seasons, since, even though the seasons are the rainiest (Figure 04), they are the warmest in the region (CALDANA et al, 2019), and this increases evapotranspiration and evaporation, and consequently has a negative impact on water balance, when dry periods occur in these months.…”

For the agriculture context, the water balance and precipitation analysis are essential for planning and decision-making. The objective of this work was to carry out the analyse of pluviometric variability, climatological water balance (CLIMWB) and the occurrence of dry spells in the Basin of Paraná River III, Paraná State, Brazil. For this purpose, 43 meteorological data from 43 stations, from 1976 to 2018, were used. Geoprocessing techniques were applied to regionalize rain data, in addition to box plots and probabilities to analyze precipitation and the occurrence of dry spells. A signficant precipitation variability was identified with regional and temporal discrepancies. Despite the Basin of Paraná River III is a rainy region in the Paraná State, the occurrence of dry spells was identified. Periods of 20 to 30 days with no precipitation event in the region they were also frequent, due the annual occurrence risks ranging from 80 to 50 %, respectively. The risk of 40 consecutive days without rain has already proved to be nil. The water balance exhibited sufficient values for agricultural practice with water surplus along the Basin. However, when analyzing dry years, a water deficit of more than 100 mm in a single month can occur.

“…Informasi agroklimatik seperti curah hujan dan temperatur merupakan informasi dasar yang dibutuhkan sebelum mengambil keputusan dalam memilih tanaman untuk dibudidayakan di lahan tertentu (Hazir et al, 2020). Zonasi agroklimatik adalah kriteria pertama yang harus dipertimbangkan saat merencanakan pengembangan tanaman baru, studi jenis ini sangat penting untuk perluasan produksi tanaman (Caldana et al, 2019). Curah hujan di Kecamatan Sidoharjo (jumlah dalam satu tahun) adalah 2.215,4 mm (Tabel 1; Gambar 1).…”

Research activity is a form of expert service by the Research Group (RG) of "Agricultural Development Based on Local Soil-Land Characteristics" to its partner of the Wonoagung Wonogiri Organic Agriculture Association (Perkumpulan Pertanian Organik Wonoagung Wonogiri, PPOWW). The provision of suitable land for plant growth by partner is a required aspect in the development of certain commodities. Expert services by the RG is involving the implementation of land suitability evaluation based on agroclimatic conditions. The objective of the activity is to provide data and information on land suitability levels for certain commodities based on climatic conditions. The area which became the object of this research activity is where the PPOWW partner is located; namely Sidoharjo Sub-district, Wonogiri Regency. The secondary data was obtained from relevant sources in the form of annual rainfall (mm year-1), annual average air temperature (°C) and annual average humidity (%). The method of agroclimate suitability evaluation was carried out by following the procedure from Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), by matching climatic conditions with plant growth requirements. Plant commodities that were evaluated for their suitability were durian, salak, mangosteen, apples and avocado. The results showed that durian is a suitable commodity (S1) with climatic conditions in Sidoharjo Sub-district. Salak and avocado are quite suitable commodities (S2). Meanwhile, mangosteen is a commodity which is moderately suitable (S3); whereas apple is a commodity that is not suitable (N). Durian, salak and avocado are commodities which have the potential to be developed by PPOWW in Sidoharjo Sub-district. The next stage of the evaluation implementation requires data and information on the suitability of soil conditions.
