Subject Microirrigation -- Hawaii -- Oahu. Sugarcane -- Irrigation -- Hawaii -- Oahu. Lysimeter.
Description The daily water budget of drip-irrigated sugarcane at Kunia, Oahu, was measured in large hydraulic load cell lysimeters. The 10-mo plant crop period was extrapolated to 109 am (43 in.}/12-mo water use. Extrapolation from the full-canopied period (leaf area index 4) gave only 99 cm (39 in.)/ 12 mo of water use. The initial 12 mo of the second ratoon had 128 cm (50.5 in.) of evapotranspiration-a 2-yr cycle of water use would be 278 cm (109.5 in.) or 140 cm (55 in.)/12 mo. Drip irrigated cane...
