Evaluating Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) Calculation Methods and Quantifying Climate‐Driven Change in Irrigation Demand Across Nepal's Terai

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Framework illustrating the comparison of different reference evapotranspiration (ETo) estimation methods and the integration of baseline ETo, crop water requirement (CWR), and irrigation water requirement (IWR) calculations with downscaled CMIP6 climate projections under SSP245 and SSP585 scenarios for the mid‐century and late‐century periods across ...

Using the AquaCrop model for maize in arid water deficient conditions: A new version for improved accuracy when adopting a varied normalized water productivity

Agricultural Water Management
Developed by FAO, AquaCrop is one of the most important generic crop growth and yield simulation models. The current research investigated the hypothesis that the AquaCrop model's normalized maize water productivity (WP*) remains constant or not under ...

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

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
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

AquaCrop model simulation under different irrigation water and nitrogen strategies

Water Science and Technology, 2013
On a global scale, irrigated agriculture consumes about 72% of available freshwater resources. Deficit irrigation can be applied in the field to save irrigation water and still lead to acceptable crop production. The AquaCrop model is a simulation model for management of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer.

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.
