“…The linear relation obtained is similar to that obtained in 'Thompson Seedless' with the trellis system by Williams and Ayars (2005a); their equation had a slope of 0.017 and an intercept of -0.008. The same linear relation between Kc and IRS has been reported in bananas (Santana et al, 1993), clementines (Castel, 1997), peaches (Johnson et al, 2000;Goodwin et al, 2006), and olives (Testi et al, 2004). Intercepted solar radiation explained 85% of the variation in water consumption by the orchard ( Figure 6), and its relation with Kc appears to be very general (Johnson et al, 2000).…”

Satellite-based information was combined with field data to estimate crop water requirement and yield potential in 74 fields of commercial fruit and nut crops grown in the Shepparton and Sunraysia Irrigation Regions of northern Victoria, Australia during the 2011/12 irrigation season. Comparisons of irrigation water supply (grower practice) with satellite-based estimates of crop water requirement showed over-irrigation was commonplace. Comparisons of actual yield with regional-and crop-specific yield targets showed large gaps in production performance.Similar conclusions were derived from a retrospective study of yield and water use data for dried vine fruit crops (n = 285) grown in Sunraysia during the period, 2002-2011.

“…Meanwhile, the soil evaporation component is represented by Ke. The FAO-56 dual crop coefficient approach has been used and tested over several sparse crops, such as cotton (Hunsaker et al 2003, Howell et al 2004, apples trees (Dragoni et al 2004), peach orchard (Goodwin et al 2006, Paco et al 2006, olive orchard (Er-Raki et al 2010), coffee trees (Flumignan et al 2011) and grapevines (Campos et al 2010). These examples show the increasing interest of the scientific community to use the FAO-56 dual crop coefficient approach for estimating ETa of vineyards and orchards under different climatic conditions and irrigation regimes.…”

Background and Aims:Irrigation is one of the most important viticultural practices in semi-arid regions. For this reason, the Food and Agriculture Organization's Irrigation and Drainage Paper No. 56 single and dual crop coefficient approaches were evaluated to estimate actual evapotranspiration (ETa) over a drip-irrigated Merlot vineyard. Methods and Results: Vine transpiration was measured using sap flow sensors, and ETa was measured by an eddy covariance system. Soil evaporation was calculated as the difference between ETa and sap flow sensors. Reference evapotranspiration (ETo) was calculated using the Penman-Monteith equation. This information was used to evaluate single (Kc) and dual crop coefficients [Kcb and Ke] approaches during the 2007/08 and 2008/09 grapevine growing seasons. Conclusions: Results indicated that vine transpiration is the most important component of ETa for a drip-irrigatedMerlot vineyard trained on a vertical shoot-positioned system. In midseason, the observed values of single crop coefficients and Kcb were lower by 11 and 19% than those recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization's Irrigation and Drainage Paper No. 56 for grapevines, respectively. The application of site-specific Kcb values reduced the error in the estimation of ETa by about 10%. Significance of the Study: The study indicates that the use of sap flow sensors could be an alternative method for obtaining site-specific Kcb values for vineyards under field conditions.
