Agrometeorological bulletin - Ecuador

INAMHI, through the area of Hydrometeorological Studies and Research, concerned about the country's Food Security, provides information for the user to establish guidelines to enable the planning of agricultural systems, and address climate variability and change. Therefore, information is made available on the behavior of the climate-soil and its influence on the crops of the three natural regions of the country, with emphasis on the variations of the moisture content in the soil through the calculation of the Water Balance (income and loss of water), analysis of precipitation and thermal conditions, as well as recommendations on agronomic practices that can help to better solve the problems attributable to the climatic conditions presented, considering the state of development of the crops.
