Crop evapotranspiration of chilli in the tropics |
| |
Abstract: | Abstract The rate of crop evapotranspiration though can be predicted theoretically but the actual field study would give a more accurate data. Result from a simple lysimeter study showed that the daily rate of actual crops evapotranspiration, ETa of chilli (Capsicum annum) under the tropical condition was in the range between 4.94–7.72 mm. Their actual crop evapotranspiration/ reference crop evapotranspiration ratio, ETa/ETo ratio was between 0.94 to 1.76 depending on the growth stages of the crops. The estimated monthly value of ETo using Blaney‐Criddle was about 5 mm/day. |
