Abstract |
Sugarcane productions in the tropical climate are mostly rainfed e.g. Brazil, India, Thailand and China which are the four top producers. Rainfed sugarcanes are susceptible to climate variability since they depend on amount and distribution of annual rainfall. Climate variability is not climate change which is the trend of change, but it is the fluctuation of the climate e.g. some of wet years and then some of dry years. The two extremes, flood and severe drought, both can affect the production of sugarcane. Climate variability is likely to be a result of the complexity of the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere. El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a measure of the interaction that links to climate variation then to the sugarcane production. It is our objective to survey of literature how to understand the relationship of climate variability and the rainfed sugarcane production. After scrutinizing of rainfed sugarcane literature, we found that the strong El Nino year of 2015/2016 decreased the sugarcane production in Thailand. |
