| dc.description.abstract | This paper compares the use of different methods for estimating reference evapotranspiration (ETo) for irrigation scheduling in the UK. Methods include use of long-term averages, daily weather data and evaporimeters. The results from a single trial in Silsoe in 1996 suggest that, with careful maintenance and measurement, a modified atmometer such as the ETgage, can give estimates of ETo which are close to those obtained using the Penman-Monteith equation. | en_UK |
