ZONEAMENTO AGROCLIMÁTICO DA PITANGUEIRA PARA TRÊS CENÁRIOS DISTINTOS DE PRECIPITAÇÃO PLUVIAL EM PERNAMBUCO

Abstract

The present work had as objective to carry through the agroclimatic zoning of the culture of surinam cherry in the state of Pernambuco. They had been used given average annual of minimum and maximum pluvial precipitation and pertaining temperatures of air the 201 climatologic station located in the main representative cities of the regions of the State for the elaboration of the water balance and the attainment of the thermal and water limits.
