Abstract

This study proposes a method to map brix variability in sugarcane plantations. The data were collected in cane field of Usina Paineiras S.A., at Itapemirim, ES. The brix readings were collected from an area of 1.0 ha. The geostatistical analysis was carried out using software Arcgis 9.2®. The Gaussian Krig model was selected according to the method proposed in this work. A thematic map of spatial brix variability was obtained that can help sugarcane management, detecting faults and yield limitation factors.
