Abstract A study was carried out to develop and evaluate the performance of different machine learning (ML) models for predicting reference evapotranspiration (ET0). The included multiple linear regression (MLR), least square-support vector (LS-SVM), artificial neural networks (ANNs) adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). daily meteorological data 50 years (1970–2019) were used estimate ET0 using FAO-ET calculator. calculator compared with ML investigate best-fit model ET....

Abstract The performance of potential evapotranspiration (PET) methods such as pan evaporation (physical measurement), empirical formulas (Penman–Monteith (PM), Hargreaves and Thornthwaite) satellite-derived PET (MOD16) were assessed in a semiarid region central India. satellite-based was obtained from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). comparisons between different made with observed (ETpan) data to identify the best method for region. Further, future projection carried...

In this study, an experiment was conducted to investigate the optimum lateral spacing and irrigation frequency for subsurface drip irrigated okra in semi-arid region of Haryana (India). Two spacings (45 cm 60 cm) four frequencies (daily, after 1, 2 3 days) were selected grow Kharif season 2019 2020. The effect on soil water dynamics, growth parameters, efficiency yield assessed using equal amounts under all treatments basis pan evaporation. results from study depict that overall moisture...

A field experiment was conducted in the Rabi season of 2021-22 at research farm Regional Research Center, Raiya (Jhajjar) Maharana Pratap Horticultural University, Karnal, Haryana. The study aimed to examine impact organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on growth, bulb yield quality two local varieties onion. consists factors viz. different combinations nutrient sources (T1: RDF (125:50:25 kg/ha), T2: RDN supplied through FYM, T3: Vermi-compost, T4: Poultry manure, T5: 50% Recommended...

The present investigation provides a modeling solution to downscale MODIS-based evapotranspiration (ET) at 30 m spatial resolution from its original 500 using meteorological and Landsat 8 (Operational Land Imager, OLI) data by employing downscaling models. nine indices namely Surface Albedo, Temperature (LST), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Soil-Adjusted (SAVI), Modified (MSAVI), Built-up (NDBI), Water (NDWI), Moisture (NDMI), Infrared for Band 7 (NDIIB7) were calculated...

A field experiment was conducted to investigate the optimum lateral spacing and irrigation frequency of a subsurface drip system for broccoli crop grown in semi-arid region Haryana (India). The effects on soil water dynamics, growth parameters (i.e. plant height, leaf length, no. leaves/plant, curd weight diameter), use efficiency (IWUE), fertilize (FUE) yield response were assessed under two spacings (45 cm 60 cm) four frequencies (daily, after one, & three days) years 2019–20 2020–21....

Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) is a well-known cucurbit with an active functional ingredient. A two-year field experiment was carried out at the Research Farm of Seed Science and Technology, CCS HAU, Hisar, in randomized block design during Kharif season (Kharif one two major cropping seasons India other South Asian countries, heavily reliant on monsoon rains being Rabi) summer season. Five different crossing periods (CP), viz. CP1, CP2, CP3, CP4, CP5, were considered to illustrate...

Hisar to study the effect of times and methods sowing on quality parameters fennel.The experiment consisted five dates (10th, 20th, 30th October, 9th 19th November) two planting (direct seeding transplanting).The results showed that seed fennel were influenced significantly by dates.The like test weight, germination percentage, seedling length vigor index-1 higher at 10th October sowing/transplanting crop.Regarding methods, all related found better in direct sown crop than transplanted...

Experiment was conducted to screen cucumber hybrids for fruit yield and physical quality parameters under polyhouse environment. Seeds of four parthenocarpic were sown using plastic pro-trays technique in the month December during both years. Seedlings raised naturally ventilated poly-tunnels. transplanted mid January. Transplanted seedlings irrigated through drip irrigation mode. Plants trained vertically upward jute thread after pruning pinching axiliary branches. Maximum recorded from...

Suitable land configuration and nutrient approach are essential for sustaining crop production under semi-arid Inceptisols of India. The study aimed to assess the effect (raised bed [RB] flat [FB]) approach, viz., organic (Organic), inorganic (soil test response [STCR]), integrated management (STCR-Integrated plant supply [IPNS]) along with farm yard manure (FYM) control (CK) on soil's physicochemical biological properties after two consecutive cycles cotton-wheat. Results showed that did...

Abstract Field experiments were conducted to investigate an appropriate saline water management strategy enhance the yield and irrigation use efficiency (IWUE) of drip‐irrigated onion. The effects on soil water–salt dynamics, growth parameters, IWUE assessed under different lateral spacings treatments. treatments comprised two (45 60 cm) four (canal water, C; conjunctive canal in a 1:1 ratio, C 1 S ; 1:2 2 S). results show that moisture content decreased vertically downwards radially...

The field experiment was conducted in the Rabi season of 2021-22 research farm Regional Research Center, Raiya (Jhajjar) Maharana Pratap Horticultural University, Karnal, Haryana to examine impact organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on growth, bulb yield self-life two indigenous onion varieties examined. treatment combinations comprised seven treatments along with one control that arranged a randomized block design (factorial) four replications namely Hisar Onion-2 Onion-4. results...

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a leguminous vegetable crop, and India holds the fourth position in production, primarily contributed by three major states: Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Punjab (Anonymous, 2022). However, survey conducted February 2023 at National Seed Corporation Farm (15 hectares) Hisar, Haryana, revealed deformities growth of some pea plants. Approximately 10% these plants exhibited distinct bushy appearance, accompanied phyllody witches'-broom symptoms, characterized deformed leaves...
