Sugarcane is one of the main crops cultivated in Brazil, and grows well in latitudes between 31o and 5o of the south hemisphere. This tropical climate range usually shows shorter and colder days, and such weather conditions may be increased close to the Tropic of Capricorn which is the most traditional region of sugarcane cultivation in Brazil’s Center-South. These tropical areas are mainly characterized by a rainy summer followed by a dry winter season. Surrounding areas of lower latitude are usually characterized by long periods of an extensive drought season, showing concentrated rain distributions during the crop cycle, and also by higher maximum temperatures, which may result in a higher evapotranspiration rate, affecting the accumulation of sugarcane biomass. The major climate components that control sugarcane growth, yield and quality are temperature, light and available water (CAMARGO, 2005). In Brazil, sugarcane is cultivated in a variety of different soils, such as Latosols, Argisols, Nitosols, Cambisols, Neosols, Vertisols, Plinthosols etc. Within each one of these classes there is also a great variability in the chemical potentiality, which is responsible for conferring specific characteristics for each type, enabling their classification on eutrophic, mesotrophjfic, distrophic, acric, mesoalic and alic soils in this universe (PRADO, 2008). Brazilian sugarcane expansion areas comprise mainly “cerrado” (savannah) areas, including west and northwest area of São Paulo state; south of Minas Gerais state, eastern Mato Grosso do Sul state, Goiás, Tocantins, and Maranhão states and THE STRATEGY FOR REGIONAL SELECTION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENERGY SUGARCANE CULTIVARS PROFILES
