Water demand for rice (Oryza sativa L.) in a Dark Plastic Gleyed soil
Main Article Content
Abstract
With the aim of determine the irrigation requirements of rice planted in a Dark Plastic Gley soil, a research was carried out in areas of the "Fernando Echenique" Agroindustrial Company located in the province of Granma, Cuba. To this end, a study was carried out of the 2008-2020 rainfall series from the rain gauge located in the study area, where the wet, medium, and dry hydrological years were defined. The climatic variables for determining the reference evapotranspiration were taken from the National Agrometeorological Bulletin issued by the Meteorology Institute. Using the CropWat program, the total net requirements for rice were estimated at different planting seasons and crop cycle durations. The results shows that for a dry year in the May-December period the water consumption is 9 110,4 m3·ha-1, in the May-September period the rice needs 7913,0 m3·ha-1 and for the July-October period it is 6 596,0 m3·ha-1 for to life cycle of 130 days. For to life cycle of 140 days the requirements plows ace follows: May-December 9654,0 m3·ha-1, May-September 4399,0 m3·ha-1 and for the July-October period it is 7072,0 m3·ha-1. When comparing the total net standards proposed by the Resolution 17/2020 for an average cycle of 140 days and to year with to 75 % probability of rainfall, the irrigation requirements obtained in this study are between 19,3 and 42,5 % higher depending on the planting season.
