Description:	This paper illustrates the use of an agroclimatic model to suggest agricultural research priorities in Brazil. More generally, several aspects of the modeling activities conducted at EMBRAPA (the Brazilian Public Corporation for Agricultural Research) will be discussed. The goal of modeling and simulation at EMBRAPA is to obtain several feedbacks that act upon researchers and research managers, helping them to gain understanding about complex systems and to set reasonable research priorities.
