Equation for Net Radiation of Evaporable Water
Go Net Radiation of Evaporable Water = Incident Solar Radiation Outside the Atmosphere*(1-Reflection Coefficient)*(Constant depending on Latitude+(A constant*Actual Duration of Bright Sunshine/Maximum Possible Hours of Bright Sunshine))-Stefan-Boltzmann constant*Mean Air Temperature^4*(0.56-0.092*sqrt(Actual Vapour Pressure))*(0.1+(0.9*Actual Duration of Bright Sunshine/Maximum Possible Hours of Bright Sunshine))
Net Radiation of Evaporable water given Daily Potential Evapotranspiration
Go Net Radiation of Evaporable Water = (Daily Potential Evapotranspiration*(Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure+Psychrometric Constant)-(Parameter of Wind Velocity and Saturation Deficit*Psychrometric Constant))/Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure
Parameter Including Wind Velocity and Saturation Deficit
Go Parameter of Wind Velocity and Saturation Deficit = (Daily Potential Evapotranspiration*(Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure+Psychrometric Constant)-(Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure*Net Radiation of Evaporable Water))/Psychrometric Constant
Penman's Equation
Go Daily Potential Evapotranspiration = (Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure*Net Radiation of Evaporable Water+Parameter of Wind Velocity and Saturation Deficit*Psychrometric Constant)/(Slope of Saturation Vapour Pressure+Psychrometric Constant)

What is Crop Factor in Irrigation?

The Crop Water Need is defined as the depth (or amount) of water needed to meet the water loss through evapotranspiration, it indicates the influence of the crop type and growth stage on crop water needs: the influence of the crop is expressed in the crop factor.
