Cover crop evapotranspiration in a northeastern US Concord (Vitis labruscana) vineyard

Background and Aims: Although cover crops are largely used in vineyards, limited information is available on the amount of water they use. The aim of this study was to quantify cover crop evapotranspiration (ETcc) in the inter-row of a Concord (Vitis labruscana Bailey) vineyard. In addition, the hyp...

Summary:Background and Aims: Although cover crops are largely used in vineyards, limited information is available on the amount of water they use. The aim of this study was to quantify cover crop evapotranspiration (ETcc) in the inter-row of a Concord (Vitis labruscana Bailey) vineyard. In addition, the hypothesis that ETcc could be accurately estimated through a relationship with incident solar radiation and reference crop evapotranspiration was tested.
