Abstract

A procedure called water wiping is developed to measure the amount of water intercepted by the canopy of winter wheat under sprinkler irrigation. Macromolecule bibulous materials with high water absorption is used to collect sprinkler water intercepted by winter wheat canopy by wiping water from leaves, sheathes, heads, and stems. A procedure is developed for application and verified using field experiments. The results show that this method is rational and applicable. This method could be used to measure canopy interception of other crops with small leaves and short heights.
