Conteúdo:	The objectives are to delineate soil management zones from soil proximal sensor data, and compare soil property values among zones in a 72-ha crop field in southeastern Brazil. Apparent electrical conductivity (aEC) and magnetic susceptibility (aMS), and equivalent Th (eTh) and U (eU) were measured across the field by a Geonics EM38-MK2 and a Medusa MS1200 sensors, respectively. These properties were kriged and used as input for delineating three management zones by fuzzy k-means clustering. Soil properties were measured at 0-10 cm at 72 sites, and their means were compared among the zones. Soil clay, organic C and exchangeable Ca and Mg vary significantly among the zones, according to Brown-Forsythe and Games-Howell tests (p=0.05), while pH, available P and exchangeable K do not. Zone delineation from proximal sensor data constitutes an efficient data-driven approach to separate the field into meaningful parts for soil, irrigation and crop management based on soil variation.
