- Abstract
Banana (Musa sp.) is one of the most consumed fruits worldwide, however, it requires elevated hydric demand to reach it is productive potential. For that enlace to achieve the balance between consumption and efficiency of water use, it is necessary the implementation of the management integrated of the water resources. In view of this, the aim of this work was to utilize evapotranspiration´s data as parameter to determine the efficiency of irrigation in banana cultivation in the cities of Barbalha and Missão Velha, CE, through remote sensing. The cultivation was shown to be stable and consolidated for more than two years, showing normality in the evaporative rate between 75 and 100%, indicating that the level of hydric stress to which the crop was submitted was low. In view the management used in irrigation and the evapotranspiration rate obtained is close to 100%, it is perceivered that the cultivation of the company Sítio Barreiras provides better efficiency in the use of water, therefore maintaining the level of productivity around 25-30 t ha-1.
