Abstract

For crop planning, the soil moisture availability in different agroclimatic lacations of Maharashtra is assessed from the computed probabilities of moisture adequacy index (Ima). The probabilities of .7 ma are obtained by adopting Beta function to the distribution of I. ma. The Ima probabilities thus obtained are examined for the moisture adequacy of crops in the region and the periods which need supplemental irrigation are identified.
