Abstract

The ET of some crops In three semi-arid and one dry sub-humid climatic locations of Maharashtra were obtained from climatic parameter~ using the guidelines suggested by Doorenbos and Pruitt {1977). The values were 483-541 mm for kharif rice, 278-373 mm for wheat and 373-447 mm for kharif jowar. When compared, the estimated values with lysimetric observation, the values were in close agreement for rice, lower for wheat and again higher for kharif jowar. A wide variation in crop evapotranspiration was observed from semi-arid to dry sub-humid climates.
