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 ...

ABSTRACT- In order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and plant density on yield and yield components of bean, a split plot arrangement was conducted in complete randomized block design during two years. The foremost variable was four levels of irrigation: 60, 80, 100, and 120% of the potential evapotranspiration. The second variable was within the row spacing of 5 cm (D1), 10...

coriandrum sativum l. is one of the most important plants compared to the other herbs and medicinal plants as a planted covered area in kermanshah province. for a suitable irrigation management programming, the awareness of crop coefficient and water requirement in different plant stages is essential. the ratio of actual evapotranspiration to reference crop evapotranspiration is defined as crop...

the effect of 10-year continuous saffron cultivation on physical and chemical properties of a silty clay loam soil was investigated in a research farm of college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz (52 º 33ʹ e longitude and 29º 36ʹ n latitude), iran. this farm was irrigated with different regimes (100% of saffron's potential evapotranspiration (etp), 75%etp, 50%etp) including rain fed tre...

this study was conducted to determine the potential evapotranspiration (pet) of maize, the crop coefficient (kc) under full water requirement as well as the cause of decrease in maize yield. it was determined that the seasonal pet of maize is about 486.6 mm. the kc under full water supply was found to be: 0.11, 0.35, 1.51 and 0.34 for initial, development, midseason and the late season stages r...

In order to determine the required water for irrigation it is necessary to calculate the amount of needed water by plant or evapotranspiration. The equations that are used to calculate evapotranspiration are not applying the same climatic parameters and, due to their experimental nature, they are not suitable for all climatic conditions. In the present study in order to compare evapotranspirati...

sensitivity analysis to determine variations in evapotranspiration is much important considering a known variation in one of climatic variables. in this study, sensitivity of evapotranspiration from penmann-mantith, penmann-kimberly (1996), penman-kimberly (1972) and penmann (1984)  and hargrivs (1985) approaches to three climatic variations (maximum temperature, wind speed, solar radiation) wa...

abstract decadal changes in land use/land cover for balachaur watershed in nawanshahar district, punjab, india were studied using black and white aerial photographs for march 1984 on approximately 1:20,000 scale and multidate geocoded false colour composites (fcc) of irs-1d liss-iii on 1:50,000 scale for march 2002, september 2002, and may 2003 and interpreted visually to prepare land use/land ...
