Abstract

Various types of water production functions were developed for Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) using sprinkler irrigation method as line source. Twelve irrigation levels were selected with separate irrigation treatments. Incase of sprinkler irrigation each crop strip sown on either side of sprinkler line was considered as separate irrigation treatment. Quadratic production function was found to be the best fit for sprinkler irrigation method giving highest value of correlation coefficient (R2) as, 0.91.
