Assessment of the AquaCrop model to simulate the impact of soil fertility management on evapotranspiration, yield, and water productivity of maize (Zea May L.) in the sub-humid agro-ecology of Nigeria

Discover Agriculture
Field experiments were conducted for two seasons in Ile-Ife, Nigeria to evaluate the performance of the AquaCrop model in simulating the effects of soil fertility management on the canopy cover (CC), soil water storages (SWS), cumulative aboveground ...

Intra‐Seasonal Crop Management and the Potential Benefit of Seasonal Precipitation Forecasts: Farm‐Level Embedded Risk Analysis in Ethiopia

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 3, Page 928-954, September 2026.
ABSTRACT How large is the potential benefit for farmers from obtaining forecasts of total rainfall in the upcoming season? This critically depends on the local farm system and the crop management actions available to farmers to respond to the forecasts issued. Studies assessing the financial value of seasonal precipitation forecasts have so far focused

Irrigation Water Management for Wheat Using Aquacrop Model إدارة میاه الری الحقلی للقمح باستخدام نموذج AquaCrop

Journal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2020
The study aimed to evaluate the performance of the Food and Agriculture Organization "AquaCrop" model (version 6.1) in simulating the productivity and biomass of wheat crops in old lands under the surface irrigation system. Field data for the period from 2013- 2016 were used to calibrate the model's through matching productivity and biomass observed ...

Evaluation of the Impacts of Climate Change on Sunflower with Aquacrop Model

Tekirdağ Ziraat Fakültesi Dergisi, 2023
Climate change has become one of the most significant risk factors in agricultural production. Plant productivity declines caused by climate change pose a serious threat to food supply and security. Crop simulation models have been widely used in recent years for the assessment of the impacts of climate change on agricultural production.

Do data from the RISMA soil monitoring network support agricultural modeling requirements?

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract The Real‐Time In‐Situ Soil Monitoring for Agriculture (RISMA) network provides soil water and agri‐environmental data for conceptualization, calibration, and validation of remote sensing and modeling products for Canadian agriculture at 32 stations in seven watersheds in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario.

Modeling Irrigation Efficiency Paradox From Farmers' Behaviors

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Agricultural irrigation accounts for 70% of global freshwater withdrawals, highlighting its critical role in water conservation. However, numerous studies have presented the irrigation efficiency paradox, whereby increased efficiency rarely reduces water consumption.

Improving the Irrigation Scheduling of Drip Irrigation System Using Field Measurements and Crop Modeling [PDF]

مدل‌سازی و مدیریت آب و خاک
IntroductionAgriculture is the largest consumer of fresh water in the whole world. Currently, almost 11% of the Earth’s total land surface is arable, which is expected to reach 13% by 2050.

Calibration of the AquaCrop model for winter wheat using MODIS LAI images [PDF]

, 2016
In semi-arid environments vegetation density and distribution is of considerable importance for the hydrological water balance. A number of hydrological models exploit Leaf Area Index (LAI) maps retrievedby remote sensing as a measure of the vegetation ...

Fielding Floods for Flourishing Farms: A Framework for Assessing the Reuse of Small Flood Reservoirs as Irrigation Reservoirs

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Due to the increased intensity and frequency of droughts under a warming world, agricultural irrigation demand (AID) is likely to increase in many regions of the world—not just in semi‐arid and arid regions, but also in temperate regions. Small reservoirs have often been touted as a decentralized solution to increase water supply resilience ...

AquaCrop simulation for weed-infested fields

, 2016
Weed infestation is a major yield reducing factor that also decreases crop water productivity. Yet, weeds are often neglected in crop productivity simulation studies, because existing empirical equations and mechanistic models are not widely applicable ...
