Analysis of the temperature behavior model for the optimization of sowing (TOMATO (Solanum licopersicum))

Resumen

Mathematics has continued to increase its presence in the sciences
and in the economic sectors, in general. Along with information
technologies, huge volumes of data are processed that facilitate
analysis and serve for objective decision-making. The avoidance of
agricultural risks is a task of the first order to safeguard food
security and thus reducing the vegetative periods in crops is an
effective strategy to achieve it. The work is carried out in the
Babahoyo canton, Los Ríos province on obtaining behavior models
of air temperatures that facilitate, through the application of
Differential Calculation, obtaining the dates of maximum
temperatures, which would allow obtaining the periods of higher
temperatures. thermal supply to accelerate growth and
development processes. The dates of maximum temperature were
located around decade 7, between March 13 and 17, results of the
sum of probabilities for 75%. The sums of temperatures obtained
fluctuate in the range 2170 – 2266 Celsius Degrees that guarantee
the acceleration of the vegetative period, since they have 100% of
the sum of probabilities of being reached. Observe a management
directed to the selection of the period of highest temperature will
reduce the risks of pests and extreme events, in addition to
reducing inputs in agricultural production, which will increase the
sustainability of the system.
