| Abstract | ||
| The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which climate change has an impact on the meteorological parameters, ET0, and irrigation scheduling of two strategic crops for Egypt, namely wheat and maize. The crops that were grown in three different types of soil, which represented light, medium, and heavy textures, were grown in three different Egyptian regions including Al-Gharbiya, Assiut, and Aswan. These regions represent the entire weather pattern of Egypt, which includes lower, middle, and upper Egypt. The formula Penman-Monetith, which was modified by FAO and calculated by Cropwat, was utilized in order to determine ET0, as well as crop water requirements and irrigation scheduling for the crops that were desired. During the course of forty years, the effects of climate change were analyzed. The Climwat program was able to identify the particular coordinates of weather stations that are representative of the regions that were investigated. All of the weather information was gathered from the NASA POWER website, and an analysis was performed to determine how the effects of climate change would affect the amount of water that would be used for irrigation and water management | ||
