Evapotranspiration and transpiration of peach and table grape

Abstract

Objectives: Use… … Surface Renewal method (SR) to determine table grape ET grown under the netting and black plastic mulch … … Sap flow method (SF) to determine table grape T grown under the netting… … in the semiarid conditions of the central Ebro River Valley in Spain.

• Also, derive crop coefficients adjusted for both netting and black plastic mulching effect • It was supposed for these crop coefficients to include all effects of the netting (and mulching) on the ETc (Tc) through new coefficients that could allow scheduling irrigations of similar cropping systems following the guidelines by Allen et al. (1998)
