| Abstract: | An experiment was conducted on a silty clay loam soil during the kharif seasons of 2000-2004 at the central research farm of Indian Grassland and Fodder Research Institute, Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, India to assess the crop evapotranspiration of teosinte (Euchlaena mexicana [Zea mexicana]) using weighing lysimeters. The total evapotranspiration losses varied from 259.9 to 426.7 mm during different years. The estimated water use efficiency ranged between 27.1 to 33.2 kg dm/ha-mm. The crop coefficient varied from 1.04 to 1.66. However, the mean crop coefficient was 1.31 for entire crop growth period of teosinte. |
