The crop coefficient curve (Kc) of a crop
been developed for a location (see the figure
below). The crop is planted on April 11 and
harvested on Oct. 15. The estimate potential crop
evapotranspiration (ET) using the Penman-
Monteith method is given below. Estimate the
evapotranspiration from the crop over the entire
growing season for this location. Assume the
is well watered and there is no significant
water stress.
