New Evapotranspiration Crop Coefficients [PDF]
Improved crop coefficients for various Pacific Northwest irrigated crops were developed for estimating crop evapotranspiration (ET) from estimates or measurements of reference ET. Reference ET was based on that for well watered, actively growing alfalfa with sufficient growth for near maximum ET in arid, irrigated regions.

Crop water use and crop coefficients of sunflower in the U.S. Central Great Plains
Sunflower is a drought-tolerant crop commonly grown as a rainfed crop in semi-arid areas, but irrigation is required to produce maximum yield. The purpose of this study was to determine sunflower water requirements and crop coefficients to facilitate ...

Estimating Crop Coefficients Using Remote Sensing-Based Vegetation Index
Crop coefficient (Kc)-based estimation of crop evapotranspiration is one of the most commonly used methods for irrigation water management. However, uncertainties of the generalized dual crop coefficient (Kc) method of the Food and Agricultural ...

Water Use and Crop Coefficients in Sprinkler Irrigated Rice
Field experiments were carried out during the years 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006 to analyze water-soil-atmosphere interactions in sprinkler irrigated rice. The research was carried out in Sardinia (39º 59’ N; 8º 40’ E, at altitude 15 m).
