How I used CROPWAT 8.0 to Estimate the Amount of Water to Irrigate this Farm (has multiple Crops)

Are you tired of wasting water on your crops and not getting the optimal yield? Look no further! In this Tutorial (English Version), we'll show you how to use the powerful tools CROPWAT 8.0 and CLIMWAT 2.0 to calculate the amount of water your land needs to maximize crop production.

With this step-by-step guide, you'll learn how to estimate the crop water requirements for not just one, but five different crops in your plot of land. As irrigation engineers, we have to ensure that your crops are getting the precise amount of water they need for optimal growth, and we'll show you how to achieve this using the crop pattern and scheme features of CROPWAT 8.0.

Developed in partnership with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), CROPWAT 8.0 is a trusted and reliable software that will revolutionize how you irrigate your land. So, join us and learn how to save water and boost crop production with CROPWAT 8.0!

Don't forget to share this CROPWAT Tutorial with your friends who are passionate about agriculture/Irrigation.

Thank you very much brother, Your explanation is crystal clear.

Awesome. I had to connect with you on LinkedIn.

Hello, I have recently been learning to use CROPWAt and CLIMWat and I want to calculate the crop water requirement for my country at the provincial scale for 2010-2020 and I have a few questions to ask. Looking forward to your reply.🥰First, can I export 150 or so sites at once in CLIM? I learned that CROPWat can only select a pen or cli file for one site at a time, so how can I quickly figure out the water requirements for 150 sites for 10 years? Second question, how to check the corresponding year of pen and cli data of CLIM export site? The third question is, which criteria should I use when calculating effective rainfall? Fourthly, in about 14 minutes of the video, you mentioned that a variety of crops can be considered to calculate the water requirement of crops, but I don't quite understand it. Will the ETc calculated before be automatically updated when crop types are added? Fifth, for the soil type part, I just need to identify the crop types in my study area and choose from CROPWat? What I want to ask is, are the parameters of the same soil type uniform across countries?

[YemaninetTekorkuari]

Thank you, but there is no option to change the time of planting for the same crop, if someone working in different crop type and different sowing time what should be the data source for the crop and the soil?

[glejdishajdini]

Hello, your video is very helpful. I want to ask you if our country in my case Albania, has not any registered station, can we register manually or what can I do in my case?

[gokulkawale]

Sir, can you provide crop data for seasame, kc, yeild response factor, depletion fraction., Root depth for my projects.

[adityabaghaswara]

Excuse me sir, I would like to ask, how do you measure the percentage of several crops in the land?

[gazim.amahmudemon]

Sir is watergems tutorial is finished? if not still i'm waiting for your new watergems tutorial.
