Modelling Evapotranspiration of Container Crops for Irrigation Scheduling

, 2011
Irrigation is now recognized as an important component in the agriculture economy of Mediterranean regions. As practiced by many growers, it is often based on traditional application methods that fail to measure the supply of water needed to satisfy the variable requirements of different crops.

A Coupled AquaCrop–Richards Model for Improved Crop Yield Prediction Through Physically Based Soil Water Dynamics

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

Measuring Crop Evapotranspiration Over Hilly Areas

, 2018
Agricultural production systems around the Mediterranean basin rely mostly on rainfed agriculture in hilly watersheds, although some irrigation is sustained downstream of water reservoirs. With climate change and increasing demand for water, most commonly cultivated species, particularly cereals, are exposed to high risks of water shortages during the ...

Farmers' Soil–Water Management Practices and Perspectives on Soil Salinization in Mirab Abaya District, Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a critical threat, impacting 20% of the world's irrigated lands and jeopardizing food security. In Ethiopia's Mirab Abaya district of the Gamo Zone, unsustainable irrigation methods exacerbate this issue. This paper examines local farmers' soil–water management systems and their awareness of salinization, aiming to educate

Evapotranspiration Estimation and Irrigation Performance Assessment Using Remote Sensing: A Case Study of the Ergani Dam Irrigation System (Turkey)

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient water resource management is critical for sustainable agriculture, with evapotranspiration (ET) serving as a key parameter. Remote sensing (RS) techniques offer cost‐effective approaches for ET estimation and irrigation performance assessment in extensive agricultural systems.

Maize Yield, Water Productivity and Economic Analysis Under Different Irrigation and Nitrogen Management Strategies Using Field Data and CERES‐Maize Model

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is limited integrated evaluation of nitrogen (N) and irrigation management strategies for improving maize yield and productivity using crop models. The effects of N and irrigation on maize yield and productivity under centre pivot (CPI) and subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) using the CERES‐Maize model were investigated. N treatments were (
