13 This paper describes briefly some of the agrometeorological and agronomic techniques that can be used, alone or in a complementary way to mitigate extreme meteorological events and to face the challenge of global warming on agriculture.

14 Under agrometeorological aspects some of the techniques that can be used are:

15 Early Warning System, methodologies should be encouraged and enhanced to monitor and to predict extreme events as dry-spell; drought; frost; hurricanes,

16 Weather Data collect and use,to enhance the use and modernization of AWNWS to give support to farmers decision process and extension services

17 Irrigation Management; to develop irrigation schedules based on agrometeorological information to face dry spell and drought situations;

18 Planting Time; to determine the best planting time for annual crops based on crop weather demand, and meteorological risks ;

20 Crop Zoning ;based on the new scenarios of climate, indicate the new species, and the risk they are associated to

21 . In relation to the agronomic techniques to reduce the negative effects of climate some that can be used are:

22 Direct Planting; to reduce substantially the surface evaporation, and the losses of CO2 from the soil to the atmosphere;ii)

23 U mol-co2/m2.s CO2 Flux- sugar cane- conventional DAP direct plantimg

24 Use of Adapted Crops; in this case the use of crops adapted to more severe climate extremes should be enhanced, as for example in drought prone areas, drought tolerant cultivars should be used

25 Planting Density; in areas where the scarcity for water will increase, the use of less plants per square meter, may help to reduce crop lost due to dry spell

26 Genetic Breeding; crop geneticists should develop new crop varieties, considering the adaptation to extreme climate situations, and In special the characteristics for drought tolerance or high/low temperatures tolerance.
