Evapotranspiration Crop Coefficient

New Mexico Crop Information Saltceder coefficient(k) to calculate evapotranspiration(ET) where Et=k*Eto Eto = reference evapotranspiration or potential evapotranspiration referenced to grass.

A third order polynomial was also fit to the data and the coefficient of variation decreased to 0.69

Crop Coefficient uses growing degree days (GDD) accumulated from planting based on the averaging method of calculating GDD with no cutoff temperatures and a base temperature is 50 F. The climate station used to calculate the reference evapotranspiration was the north Bosque station.
