Assessing Crop Water Requirements and a Case for Renewable-Energy-Powered Pumping System for Wheat, Cotton, and Sorghum Crops in Sudan

Climate change is changing global weather patterns, with an increase in droughts expected to impact crop yields due water scarcity. Crops can be provided via underground pumping systems mitigate shortages. However, the energy required pump tends expensive and hazardous environment. This paper explores different sites Sudan assess requirements as first stage of developing renewable sources based on systems. The are calculated for crops using CROPWAT CLIMWAT simulation tools from Food Agriculture Organization (FAO) United Nations. Further, translated into electrical requirements. Accurate calculations needed will help cost-effective that improving reducing carbon emissions. results suggest northern regions tend have higher demands potential should explored these regions, which more susceptible drought where under stress adverse climate conditions.
