THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE ON WATER CONSUMPTION OF SUNFLOWER CROPS IN WASIT GOVERNORATE

Özet

For the successful cultivation of the sunflower crop, specific climatic conditions must be met, including adequate water availability through rainfall. However, the amount of rainfall in the study area is insufficient to meet the crop’s water needs. Therefore, irrigation methods are used to fulfill the crop's water requirements during the growing season. The study revealed a noticeable variation in water consumption during the growth period. Among the climatic elements, the strongest simple correlation with water consumption was found with relative humidity, while the weakest correlation was with wind speed. The value of the multiple correlation between all climatic elements and water consumption was 1.000, indicating a perfect relationship.
