It is critical to evaluation of reference evapotranspiration estimation methods before their application because considerable mistakes can be made in determining the amount of water to be applied to a culture, which resonate certainly in productivity.</p><p><span><br /></span></p>

Estimation of Evapotranspiration is important for determining the agro-climatic potential of a particular region, water requirement of field crops, irrigation scheduling and suitability of crops or varieties, which can be grown successfully with the best economic returns and therefore numerous models have been developed for determining evapotranspiration. The performance evaluation of commonly used reference evapotranspiration (ET0) estimation methods like FAO 56 Penman-Monteith, Samani and Hargreaves, Makkink, Blaney Criddle, Jensen-Haise, Priestly-Taylor, FAO 24 radiation and Modified Penman Monteith method based on their accuracy of estimation has been undertaken in this study. The inter-relationship between FAO-56 Penman-Monteith method and other reference evapotranspiration (ET0) estimation method is also determined in this study. The results showed that Blaney Criddle method, Modified Penman method, Jensen-Haise method and Priestly-Taylor method are the alternative methods to Penman-Monteith method for better estimate of ET0 for the Junagadh city of Gujarat, India.

Water is gradually becoming scarcer and more expensive. Therefore, any means that aims at a more efficient use of this substance in the most diverse sectors, becomes essential. In this context, the accurate estimation of evapotranspiration is of fundamental importance. With this in mind, the objective of this work was to compare the performance of different methodologies for estimating reference evapotranspiration in relation to the FAO Penman-Monteith method on days with and without precipitation in the region of Cambará do Sul/RS. To achieve this goal, daily data on maximum air temperature (°C), minimum temperature (°C), relative air humidity (%), dew point temperature (°C), wind speed at 2 m high (m s-1), atmospheric pressure (hPa) and global solar radiation (MJ m-2 d-1), were acquired from the automatic weather station located in Cambará do Sul/RS and divided into two sets (days with and without precipitation ). The comparison between the different methodologies and the standard method, for each period mentioned above, took place through a simple linear regression analysis to obtain the regression coefficients a and b and the determination coefficient. Subsequently, Pearson's correlation coefficient, root of the mean square of the error, Willmott index and the Camargo and Sentelhas index were calculated . For the municipality of Cambará do Sul/RS to replace the Penman-Monteith method, we recommend the use of the Penman and Makkink methods, which presented satisfactory performance in all periods analyzed.
