Estimation of crop water requirement and irrigation scheduling using CROPWAT Model in Bina River Basin
Author(s): Bikramaditya, Karamvir Singh and Sanjeev Kumar Singh
Abstract: The increasing demands for water from many sectors, there is a growing scarcity of water for agriculture. Research revealed that as temperatures rose, so did the overall crop water needs of all key crops, which in turn raised the simulated irrigation water demand. Security of food and livelihood may be threatened in the future by changes in the global environment, especially the climatic changes that evidence has been steadily revealing. In order to promote food security, recent developments in new irrigation technology aid in determining crop water requirements and planning irrigation schedules that reduce water use with negligible effects on yields and yield quality.In the current study, agricultural water requirements and irrigation schedule are estimated for the Bina River Basin area under various rainfall and climate scenarios. The current study's main objectives are to estimate agricultural water requirements using CROPWAT 8.0, schedule irrigation for the main crops in the Bina basin, and calculate the net and gross irrigation water requirements.
