Format: Oral Symposium
Keywords: evapotranspiration, penman-monteith and water-stress

Session Description: The historic Penman-Monteith equation is widely used to predict potential evapotranspiration and irrigation requirements. Since its inception a half-century ago, numerous instruments and approaches have been developed to more precisely determine evapotranspiration and crop water status.  He we desc ribe the state-of-the-art in approaches to precisely stress economic plants and increase the value of the harvested products.
