This study is carried out to estimate the potential evapotranspiration (PET) and crop coefficient (Kc) for Wheat, BL 3235 variety. A lysimeter is installed to estimate PET at the experimental farm of Agricultural Research Center of Bhairahawa, which is located in western part of Nepal. The Blaney-Criddle formula is used to estimate the Kc for wheat. The estimated values of PET and Kc for wheat ...

for the purposed water resources management, irrigation scheduling, water usage optimization and gaining maximum yield two step fao method was applied to determine the water requirement (evapotranspiration) of sugar beet.  in this paper reference evapotranspiration were computed from recorded meteorological data at 38 weather stations using the hargreaves-samani method; and then through applyin...

Agriculture accounts for most of the renewable freshwater resource withdrawals in Malawi, yet food insecurity and water scarcity remain as major challenges. Despite Malawi’s vast water resources, climate change, coupled with increasing population and urbanisation are contributing to increasing water scarcity. Improving crop water productivity has been identified as a possible solution to water ...
