Abstract

Crop Water Production Function Model (CWPFM) has been studied for quite few decades and since recent years developing a non- time specific and non-site-specific CWPFM has been receiving more and more attentions. A dynamic model of plantain bunch yield response to daily available soil moisture is presented. Using a priori information on dry matter accumulation in the plant when water is not limiting and using a piecewise linear regression, functions of crop response to soil moisture from experimental test plot data were estimated. With the estimated model, the bunch yields for various irrigation schedules were predicted. The predictions demonstrate the sensitivity of the model to the timing of irrigations.
