Abstract
A computer programme was developed which computes the daily evapotranspiration as a residue from the water balance equation. Moisture profiles from field observations of soil moisture tensions are used as an input into the model. Further, the programme evaluates the effects of rainfall or irrigation during the periods of observation and also calculates the water loss from deep drainage. It takes care of the limitation in the availability of data due to occasional skipping of records for two or more days at a stretch. The additional features of this programme include the procedures for the computation of infiltration and the moisture flow. The model was applied to actual field data and the results are presented.
