| Abstract | A 3-year study was conducted in the eastern Mediterranean region of northern Syria to develop crop coefficient, K c, for drip-irrigated short-season cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). Two sets of K c curves were determined, the generalized K c published by the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) that was adjusted for local climate, and the locally developed K c as the ratio of measured cotton evapotranspiration to calculated reference evapotranspiration. The adjusted FAO K c curves were the same for the 3 years. However, the locally developed K c curves not only differed among the 3 years, but also from the adjusted FAO K c. During the mid-season stage, the adjusted FAO K c was 24% higher than the locally developed value of 1.05. Variations in locally developed K c values were caused by normal year-to-year variations in irrigation timing and amount, suggesting sensitivity of K c that cautions against the use of locally developed K c based on limited data (i.e., a single season). On the season, the overestimation of crop evapotranspiration by using adjusted FAO K c was substantial and equivalent to 150 mm water or about two additional irrigations per season. Results caution against blind application of published FAO K c curve, suggesting some local or regional calibration for increased accuracy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
