Reference evapotranspiration of screenhouse‐grown crops

Actas del III Workshop en Investigación Agroalimentaria. WiA 3.1
The reference evapotranspiration Eref was measured under three screenhouses and compared to outside Eref. The reduction with respect to outside Eref was quantified by means of two factors, rad and adv. rad was found to depend linearly on transmittance (), and adv on wind ratio (). A model was proposed for screenhouse Eref based on outside weather

Estimation of Evapotranspiration ETc and Crop Coefficient Kc of Wheat, in south Nile Delta of Egypt Using integrated FAO-56 approach and remote sensing data

Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2012
Crop water requirements are represented by the actual crop evapotranspiration. Estimation of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) and crop coefficient using remote-sensing data is essential for planning the irrigation water use in arid and semiarid regions ...

Optimized Land–Water Management Expands Afforestation Potential Under Land and Human Water‐Use Constraints

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human water demand constrains China's feasible afforestation potential more strongly than is commonly recognized, and future climate change further intensifies this limitation. Integrating land‐use optimization with water‐saving measures substantially expands feasible afforestation area and associated carbon sinks, revealing a practical pathway to ...

The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...

PENDUGAAN KOEFISIEN TANAMAN UNTUK MENGHITUNG KEBUTUHAN AIR DAN MENGATUR JADUAL TANAM KEDELAI DI LAHAN KERING LAMPUNG

Jurnal Agrotropika, 2020
One strategic agriculture commodity for Indonesia is soybean. Therefore, Indonesia should make an effort to be self sufficient in soybean production. For that purpose the planting area should be extended to dry land area.

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.
