Agriculture — Millets Maize Irrigated Maize Water Dripirrigation
| Water Management - Drip Irrigation |
|
- Irrigation once in 2 days
- Irrigation based on climatological approach
| Irrigation volume = Pe x Kp x Kc x A x Wp – Re |
- Pe – Pan evaporation rate (mm/day)
- Kp – Pan co-efficient (0.75 to 0.80)
- Kc – Crop co-efficient (0.4 – Vegetative stage; 0.75 – Flowering stage; 1.05 – Grain formation stage)
- A – Area (75 x 30 cm)
- Wp – Wetted percentage (80% for maize)
- Re – Effective rainfall (mm)
| Irrigation duration = | Water requirement per plant once in 2 days |
| No. of dripper / plant x Discharge rate (lph) |
