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

open access: yesDiscover 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 ...

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

open access: yesEarth'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 ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesTekirdağ 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.

Assessing Response of Water Footprint of Maize Production to Drought in China: Different Climate Scenarios and Irrigation Strategies

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Climate change impacts on water resources and drought characteristics will significantly affect regional agricultural water security. To clarify the response mechanism of water consumption and drought, this study coupled meteorological data from CMIP6 under two shared socioeconomic pathways in China.

Probabilistic Agro‐Hydrology: A Stochastic Framework for Irrigation Risk Assessment and Water Management

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Irrigation plays a critical role in stabilizing agricultural productivity under increasing climatic variability. However, the intensification of droughts and extreme weather events is revealing the vulnerability of irrigation systems, particularly due to mismatches between peak water needs and natural water availability.

Coping with drought for food security in Tigray, Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Agricultural production in drylands suffers from drought and in sub-Saharan Africa, only about 15% of the terrestrial rainwater is used by plants for food, fodder and fiber.

AquaCrop simulation for weed-infested fields

open access: yes, 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 ...

Management Strategies and Agricultural Calendars for Forage Production in Semi‐Arid Brazil Using AquaCrop

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 1, Page 411-424, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Forage production in semi‐arid regions of Brazil is limited by water deficit. This study aimed to identify the most adapted and efficient production systems and define their agricultural calendars for the semi‐arid region of Brazil. Twenty‐nine production arrangements that included different cropping conditions, plant density, plant cycles ...
