Considering profitability in pasture-based systems, investigating parameters affecting crop coefficients for irrigation management becomes important. In this experiment, we determined the crop coefficient of ‘Marandu’ palisadegrass based on accumulated degree-days and estimated plant water consumption under single (‘Marandu’ alisadegrass) and mixed (‘Marandu’ palisadegrass + black oats + Italian ryegrass) cropping regimes. The research was conducted at the Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture in Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil, between 2016 and 2017. Evapotranspiration was assessed using weighing lysimeters while crop evapotranspiration was calculated using mean weight variation. Reference evapotranspiration and degree-days were estimated. Data were obtained from an automated weather station. Equations and regression models relating crop coefficient with accumulated degree-days were generated for two seasons (spring/summer and autumn/winter) and evaluated for two year-cycles, from 2015 to 2018. The results showed better prediction accuracy for the single cropping system in spring/summer 2017–18. Highlights The model for determinating crop coefficient (Kc) by accumulated degree-days showed efficient for use in determination local. The use of the degree days for determination Kc is more vantage because only necessary to measure the air temperature (maximum and minimum). The equations for determining crop coefficient by accumulated degree days for the spring/summer season in Marandu palisade grass cultive show more precision that in mixture forage system.

ABSTRACT Cowpea has great socioeconomic importance in the northeastern part of Pará state. However, in order to provide suitable irrigation management during the dry period this region requires solid information regarding water demand by regional crops. This research aims to determine the water demand, the crop coefficient (Kc) and the uncoupling factor during the different development stages of cowpea in the northeast of Pará. The crop evapotranspiration (ETc) was measured by drainage lysimeters. This information was coupled to the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) to obtain the crop coefficients, which were used to adjust the model function of accumulated degree-days and the leaf area index (LAI). The uncoupling factor was estimated to indicate the factors that control evapotranspiration. The ETc values reached a cumulative total of 267.73 mm ± 10.21 mm during the cowpea cycle. The average value of the uncoupling factor was 0.66. This indicates that the cowpea crop does not fully uncouple from the atmosphere underneath the climatic conditions in northeast Pará. The cowpea Kc values presented averages of 0.8, 1.4 and 0.8 in the vegetative phase, reproductive phase and final stage, respectively. The Gaussian model showed an excellent fit for the estimation of Kc values based on accumulated degree days and the LAI. These amounts differ from others found in the literature. Therefore, it reinforces the necessity for an assessment of crop coefficients under local conditions and for the employment of more precise methods.

Abstract. Accurate generation of spatial soil water maps is useful for many types of irrigation management. A hybrid remote sensing evapotranspiration (ET) model combining reflectance-based basal crop coefficients (Kcbrf) and a two-source energy balance (TSEB) model was modified and validated for use in real-time irrigation management. We modeled spatial ET for maize and soybean fields in eastern Nebraska for the 2011-2013 growing seasons. We used Landsat 5, 7, and 8 imagery as remote sensing inputs. In the TSEB, we used the Priestly-Taylor (PT) approximation for canopy latent heat flux, as in the original model formulations. We also used the Penman-Monteith (PM) approximation for comparison. We compared energy balance fluxes and computed ET with measurements from three eddy covariance systems within the study area. Net radiation was underestimated by the model when data from a local weather station were used as input, with mean bias error (MBE) of -33.8 to -40.9 W m-2. The measured incident solar radiation appeared to be biased low. The net radiation model performed more satisfactorily when data from the eddy covariance flux towers were input into the model, with MBE of 5.3 to 11.2 W m-2. We removed bias in the daily energy balance ET using a dimensionless multiplier that ranged from 0.89 to 0.99. The bias-corrected TSEB ET, using weather data from a local weather station and with local ground data in thermal infrared imagery corrections, had MBE = 0.09 mm d-1 (RMSE = 1.49 mm d-1) for PM and MBE = 0.04 mm d-1 (RMSE = 1.18 mm d-1) for PT. The hybrid model used statistical interpolation to combine the two ET estimates. We computed weighting factors for statistical interpolation to be 0.37 to 0.50 for the PM method and 0.56 to 0.64 for the PT method. Provisions were added to the model, including a real-time crop coefficient methodology, which allowed seasonal crop coefficients to be computed with relatively few remote sensing images. This methodology performed well when compared to basal crop coefficients computed using a full season of input imagery. Water balance ET compared favorably with the eddy covariance data after incorporating the TSEB ET. For a validation dataset, the magnitude of MBE decreased from -0.86 mm d-1 (RMSE = 1.37 mm d-1) for the Kcbrf alone to -0.45 mm d-1 (RMSE = 0.98 mm d-1) and -0.39 mm d-1 (RMSE = 0.95 mm d-1) with incorporation of the TSEB ET using the PM and PT methods, respectively. However, the magnitudes of MBE and RMSE were increased for a running average of daily computations in the full May-October periods. The hybrid model did not necessarily result in improved model performance. However, the water balance model is adaptable for real-time irrigation scheduling and may be combined with forecasted reference ET, although the low temporal frequency of satellite imagery is expected to be a challenge in real-time irrigation management.

ABSTRACT Sorghum is of significant economic importance for Northeastern Brazil, since it exhibits high growth rates in regions with irregular rainfall distribution and high temperatures, and is an alternative to corn, which has greater water requirements. Despite being a traditional crop in the region, there are few studies on irrigation management in the Apodi plateau. The aim of this study was to determine the evapotranspiration of the crop and the crop coefficient (Kc) for the different stages of sorghum growth in two cycles, and establish the relationship between the Kc and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) obtained by radiometry. Two weighing lysimeters were used to estimate crop evapotranspiration (ETc). Reference evapotranspiration (ETo) was estimated by the Penman-Monteith method (FAO) and the crop coefficient determined using two methodologies: simple Kc and dual Kc. Total crop evapotranspiration in the two cycles was 452 and 557 mm. The ETc value was 23% higher in the second cycle compared to the first. The maximum Kc values for the first and second cycles were 1.21 and 1.35, respectively, using the dual Kc methodology. The linear relationship found between the Kc values and the NDVI allows monitoring and estimating the water requirements of the crop.

A evapotranspiração constitui no principal elemento envolvido nas exigências hídricas das culturas, sua estimativa deve ser precisa, sendo utilizada no manejo da irrigação, como também na tomada de decisão que consiste em determinar se a cultura atende as condições edafoclimáticas da região. Um dos métodos de manejo da irrigação que se destaca por aproximar ao máximo a quantidade ideal de água a ser oferecida à cultura é a determinação da evapotranspiração da cultura (ETc). Sendo assim, o presente trabalho objetivou em estimar a evapotranspiração da cultura (ETc) e do coeficiente de cultura (Kc) para diferentes fases fenológicas na melancia. A variedade utilizada foi a Crimson Sweet, semeados no espaçamento de 1,5 m x 0,75 m onde o sistema de irrigação empregado foi por gotejamento. Para tanto, o experimento foi conduzido na área experimental da Unidade acadêmica de Garanhuns da UFRPE, no período de 01/02/2013 a 07/04/2013. O cálculo do Kc foi obtido pela relação entre ETc e ETo calculada pelo método do balanço hídrico do solo e estimada pelo método de tanque Classe A, respectivamente, no período de 01 até 66 dias após o plantio (DAP). A evapotranspiração média da cultura da melancia nos 66 dias do balanço foi de 11,36 mm dia-1 e os valores médios dos coeficientes de cultivo (Kc) obtidos pela relação entre ETc e ETo foram 1,80; 1,97; 1,84 e 1,60 para a fase vegetativa, floração, maturação e colheita, respectivamente, e o máximo consumo de água pela cultura deu-se no estádio de floração. A B S T R A C T Evapotranspiration is the main element involved in crop water requirements, your estimate should be accurate, by using management of irrigation systems also with decision making that is whether the culture meets the ecological conditions of the region. One of the methods of irrigation management approach that stands out the most optimum amount of water to be offered to culture is the estimate of crop evapotranspiration (ETc). Therefore, this study aimed to determine the crop evapotranspiration (ETc) and crop coefficient (Kc) for different stages of crop development watermelon. We used the Crimson Sweet variety, sown at a spacing of 1.5 mx 0.75 m where the irrigation system was used drip. Therefore, an experiment was conducted at the experimental unit of Academic Garanhuns/UFRPE, from 01/02/2013 to 07/04/2013. The calculation of Kc was obtained by the ratio of ETc and ETo calculated by the method of soil water balance and estimated by the method of Class A pan, respectively, from 01 to 66 days after planting (DAP). The average evapotranspiration of watermelon crop in 66 days the balance was 11.36 mm day-1 and the average values of crop coefficients (Kc) obtained by the relationship between ETc and ETo were 1.80, 1.97, 1, 84 and 1.60 for the vegetative stage, flowering, ripening and harvesting, respectively, and the maximum water consumption by the crop yield in the flowering stag

Abstract. While methods for estimating reference evapotranspiration (ETo or ETr) and subsequent crop ET (ETc) via crop coefficient (Kc) and dual crop coefficient (Kcb, Ke) methods have been standardized since 2005 and 1998, respectively, the current version of the DSSAT cropping system model (CSM) has not been updated to fully implement these methods. In this study, two major enhancements to the model’s ET routines were evaluated: (1) addition of the ASCE Standardized Reference Evapotranspiration Equation so that both grass and alfalfa reference ET were properly calculated using the most recent reference ET standard and (2) addition of the FAO-56 dual crop coefficient approach to determine potential ET, which combined an evaporative coefficient (Ke) for potential evaporation with a dynamic basal crop coefficient (Kcb) for potential transpiration as a function of simulated leaf area index. Previously published data sets for maize in Colorado (five years) and cotton in Arizona (seven years) were used to parameterize the model. Simulations of ETo were compared to outputs from Ref-ET software, and simulated crop coefficients were contrasted among three crop coefficient methods: the current approach (Kcs), a previously published adjustment to the model’s Kc equation (Kcd), and a new dual Kc approach that follows FAO-56 explicitly (Kcb). Results showed that crop coefficient simulations with the new ETo-Kcb method better mimicked theoretical behavior, including spikes in the soil evaporation coefficient (Ke) due to irrigation and rainfall events and basal crop coefficient response as associated with simulated crop growth. Simulated ETc and yield with the new ETo-Kcb method were up to 4% higher and 28% lower for cotton and up to 13% higher and 26% lower for maize, respectively, than that with the current ETo-Kcs method, indicating that the seasonal ETc effects were minimal while yield effects were more substantial. Use of FAO-56 concepts and current ET standards in DSSAT-CSM demonstrated a well-accepted ET benchmark to guide assessment of other ET methods in the model and made the model much more conceptually relevant to irrigation and ET specialists.

ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to obtain the onion crop coefficients and evaluate the influence of different irrigation depths (0, 22, 45, 75 and 100% of crop evapotranspiration) on marketable yield and quality of onion bulbs cultivated with and without mulch of elephant grass. The experiment was carried out in Seropédica, RJ, Brazil, from May to September 2012, in a Red Yellow Argisol. The experimental design was in randomized blocks in split plots, with 10 treatments and seven replicates. Irrigation management was performed through soil water balance using the Time Domain Reflectometry technique, with probes installed horizontally at 7.5 and 22.5 cm depths. The use of mulch allowed the application of smaller irrigation depths, leading to lower crop coefficient (18% in stage II and 3% in stage III) in comparison to the crop without mulch. Irrigation depths associated with the use of mulch influenced the evaluated production variables, proving to be an alternative to increase marketable yield and quality of onion bulbs, with lower irrigation depth.

Crop coefficient (Kc) study is the main tool used to determine the plant water consumption enabling irrigation management. The dual Kc is related to the evaporation coefficient of water from the soil (Ke), therefore, the objective of the work was to evaluate the influence of the soil coverage, in the variability of the crop evapotranspiration (ETc) of soybean and the dual Kc. The Kc values were determined by the ratio between ETc and ETo (reference evapotranspiration). ETo was estimated using the methodology proposed by Penman-Monteith FAO-56. The ETc values were obtained by the water input and output ratio of the weighing lysimeters system for the culture development phases established as initial; development; intermediate and final. The culture presented a cycle of 118 days for both treatments; the volume of the water precipitated and supplied by irrigation was 786.4 and 89 mm, respectively. The water consumption determined by ETc during the crop cycle was 699.10; 672.57; 649.06; 724.02; 643.46 and 638.12 mm, respectively for levels 0; 2; 4; 6; 8 and 10 t ha-1 of the dry mass of Brachiaria. The average dual Kc obtained was 1.60; 1.48; 1.40; 1.53; 1.42 and 1.47, respectively for coverings and a reduction in Kc was observed for treatments with soil coverage. Yield and development of the root system, were increase on soil coverage of 2 and 4 t  ha-1.

B.EVAPOTRANSPIRATION AND CROP COEFFICIENTS OF POTTED Alstroemeria x hybrida GROWN IN GREENHOUSE   2 ABSTRACT The determination of water requirements of a crop throughout its cycle is critical for a proper irrigation management. The objective of this study was to determine the evapotranspiration and crop coefficient (Kc) of Alstroemeria x hybrida grown under greenhouse conditions. The crop evapotranspiration (ETc) was determined by weighing lysimeters, and the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) was estimated by the Penman-Monteith method. The Experiment was conducted under controlled conditions at the Polytechnic College of UFSM, Santa Maria, RS, and the treatment comprised five depths for water replacement associated to the pot retention capacity (WHC) (30, 45, 60, 75 and 90% of WHC). The experimental design adopted was completely randomized, with ten repetitions, one plant per pot.   For the evaluation of Kc, 90% of the container capacity was consideredas limit. The crop coefficient was obtained by the relationship between the crop evapotranspiration and reference evapotranspiration. Our results demonstrated that water consumption for Alstroemeria x hybrida in the treatments with a limit of water availability varied from 47.6 mm to 207.8 mm. The average crop coefficient of Alstroemeria x hybrida grown under greenhouse conditions was 0.39 for the growth stages, 0.41 for the beginning of flowering, 0.95 for flowering, and1.50 and 0.75 for full flowering and for the end of the flowering, respectively. Keywords: water consumption, cut flower, irrigation management, crop coefficient.
