fao56-model 0.1.8

A Python package for FAO-56 model calculations.

Fao56 Model

This is an implementation of the FAO56 model. Only the method where the effect of both crop transpiration and soil evaporation are integrated into a single crop coefficient is implemented now.

TO DO

• ensure that the limits umean and avg_RHmin is respected for the correlation
• implement irrigation method to calculate the ideal water delivery
• implement irrigation method to calculate maximum yield given max potential water delivery per day
• add the crop coefficient correction for the initial stage
• generalize the output
• add the dual crop coefficient method
• add more crops to the database
• validate the model using the FAO56 data
• add tests
