Practical methods for the accurate estimation of water requirement for irrigated agriculture are essential. Simulation model is a useful tool to estimate water balance in the crop field. In this study, the BUDGET model was used to evaluate its performance to simulate water balance in wheat field. The BUDGET model is composed of a set of validated subroutines describing the various processes involved in water extraction by plant roots and soil water movement in absence of a water table
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
