Determining water needs for crops from climatic data

Hilgardia, 1955, vol. 24, issue 9

Abstract: The best measure of water use by crops is found by soil sampling to obtain the changes in soil moisture. Reproducible results are obtained by this method, if there is a long, rainless period during the growing season, and if the irrigations are far enough apart so that at least three samplings may be obtained between waterings.
