Abstract

This paper aims to estimate different crop water requirement and irrigation water requirement By using Cropwat 8 software in Taungdwingyi Township at Magway Division. Irrigation is an essential part of different crops because rainfall is not enough for irrigated farmland. To develop this model, the required data, such as crop types and crop patterns are collected from Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation. The meteorological data from Taungdwingyi Station for 2014-2018 are collected from the Department of Meteorology. The crop stage data, including the crop coefficient kc, stage days, rooting depth, critical depletion and crop height of different crops are taken from FAO Irrigation and Drainage Paper 56. The yield response factor is also obtained from FAO Irrigation and Drainage Paper 33. The Penman- Monteith Method was used to estimate ETo and ETc respectively. Estimate the actual evapotranspiration ETc through a water balance of the irrigation water requirements (IR). The results of different crops describe by using tables.
