Evapotranspiration is a key element in calculating the surface energy balance, wáter balance and crop water stress and crop yield determination. However, it´s direct measurement or estimation is frequently complicated, since the diversity and complexity of the factors acting in this physical process. (morphological, physiological and soil factors). SEBAL (Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land) estimates ET based on satellite images, using the principles of surface energy balance producing excellent results as reported in several studies of different scientist authors; minimizing the cost and time for the ET determination for large vegetation zones. The objective of this research work was to estimate the potential evapotranspiration for the pomegranate crop in a commercial farm, located in Gomez Palacio, Durango, Mexico, by SEBAL using Landsat 8 satellite images during the crop cycle 2016. The results were validated with estimates of ET by the FAO 56 method, obtaining a Willmott concordance index of 0.96, which means good estimation precision.
