In order to clarify the differences and similarities in climate conditions between major cigar producing areas in China and dominant cigar producing areas in foreign countries, this study selected 17 major cigar production areas in Hainan province, Yunnan province, Sichuan province and Hubei province of China, as well as the dominant major cigar production areas in foreign countries, including Pinar del Rio in Cuba, Santiago in Dominica, Jember in Indonesia and Bahia in Brazil. General statistical analysis and cluster analysis were used. The differences of six key meteorological factors including monthly average temperature, maximum temperature, minimum temperature, rainfall, relative humidity and difference in temperature in the field period, the drying period as well as the whole growing season of cigar production in the 17 production areas were studied. There was no significant difference in the overall climate conditions of the field period, drying period and the whole growing season between domestic and foreign major cigar producing areas, while the differences in the four meteorological factors of the maximum temperature, minimum temperature, rainfall and difference in temperature in the whole growing season between domestic and foreign major producing areas reached the significant level (P<0.05). Among them, the differences of the three meteorological factors of maximum temperature, minimum temperature and difference in temperature reached the level of extremely significant (P<0.01). Taking the Euclidean distance of 15 as the critical value, the 17 major cigar producing areas in the field period could cluster into four categories, the 17 major cigar producing areas in the drying period could cluster into three categories, and the 17 major cigar producing areas in the whole growing season could cluster into two categories. The results of this study would provide a scientific basis for major cigar producing areas in China to learn from dominant cigar producing areas in foreign countries in planting layout, variety selection and quality improvement, and also provide a data basis for climate assessment and variety optimization of cigar growing areas in China.
