Crop evapotranspiration is calculated using the single crop coefficient approach described in FAO56 (Equation 6). Crop coefficients at various growth stages can be modelled in Source as described in the Irrigation Demand Model Crop Factors SRG entry. Alternatively, Source also offers sufficient flexibility to apply daily crop factors if they are known for a particular crop based on a different source or method.
