AquaCrop model simulation under different irrigation water and nitrogen strategies
On a global scale, irrigated agriculture consumes about 72% of available freshwater resources. Deficit irrigation can be applied in the field to save irrigation water and still lead to acceptable crop production. The AquaCrop model is a simulation model for management of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer. This model is a new model that is accurate, robust and requires fewer data inputs ...

Wavelet transform analysis of reference crop evapotranspiration during the growing season in three typical regions of Inner Mongolia, China
Management and scheduling of irrigation water requires consideration of evapotranspiration, one of the most important hydrological variables. This study investigates the variations in the daily potential evapotranspiration (ET0), and its aerodynamic (ETa) and radiometric (ETr) components in three areas (western, central and eastern) of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (IMAR) during the ...

Improving alfalfa irrigation in The west
Alfalfa grown for forage is a major crop in many areas of the western United States. In the arid and semi–arid west, irrigation is required to obtain economic alfalfa yields. Because alfalfa is a perennial crop with a potentially long growing season, it can use a substantial amount of water. Alfalfa production in Imperial County, CA, has been valued at more than $170 million dollars for ...
