Water Requirement of Selected Crops for Sangareddy District of Telangana Using CROPWAT 8.0

The precise selection of appropriate crops that are compatible with the soil and crop water requirements (CWR) in a particular area is necessary for effective land management. A study was conducted to ascertain agricultural few chosen Sangareddy District Telangana. include Rice, Sugarcane, Soybean, Maize, Cotton, Black gram, Green Bengal gram. Using meteorological data from past 10 years stored CROPWAT, amount needed by each calculated. FAO Penman-Monteith method used determine reference evapotranspiration (ET0). shows evapotranspiration, ETo varied 7.96 mm/day 3.14 between 2010 – 2021. requirement Net irrigation Rice were 595.5 mm 331.9 mm, Maize 366.6 64.3 Cotton 612.7 283.8 Sugarcane 1902.1 1189.3 Soybean 270.9 0.0mm, gram 332.1 22.1 342.7 13.3 344.9 316.1 mm. results accurate R2 0.84 compared Class pan. This demonstrates CROPWAT model helpful computing which needs administration assets.
