| | Summary: |
| | Irrigation systems represent a direct measure which can solve the needs for
quality water in agriculture. In order to successfully design an irrigation system, it is
necessary to analyze the current plant needs for water, i.e. evapotranspiration, as well
as the future needs. In this paper, the FAO-56 Penman-Monteith method was used to
determine the reference evapotranspiration (ET0) from 9 meteorological stations in
Serbia for the period 1980-2010. The obtained ET0 values were used for ET0 analysis
and forecasting. Three smoothing techniques were used (moving average method,
exponential smoothing and Holt-Winters forecasting model), and three statistical tests
were applied for their comparison. |
