Description:	The cultivation of forage-cereal intercrops entails competition between the two crops for nutrients, light and mostly water in the Cerrado of Brazil. Considering water as the main limiting factor, this study aimed to develop a method to identify the areas in a given region of the Cerrado where climate risk (rainfall) for sowing maize (Zea mays) intercropped with brachiaria (Brachiaria brizantha) is low.
