Crop Evapotranspiration Estimation using Fuzzy Logic

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

This research applied the Fuzzy Set Theory in assessing crop evapotranspiration. The fuzzy rule-based model was developed for estimating evapotranspiration of sugarcane in Song-Phi-Nong Irrigation Project, Suphanburt. The input variables include air temperature, crop development stages and sunshine duration. The calibration and validation were performed by comparing the results simulated by the model with those calculated by Penman-Monteith method. The results from both methods are comparable. Furthermore, the model is capable to simulate daily evapotranspiration from monthly data with reasonable results. The Fuzzy Set Theory is en applicable approach in the field of irrigation engineering. However, its applications require a good understanding of the system in order to define the accurate and appropriate logic of the system.
