Determination of evapotranspiration is necessary in water studies specially to estimate crop water requirement and to design irrigation systems. One of the most important stages in estimating crop water requirement is determination of crop coefficient (Kc) and reference evapotranspiration (ETo) as for factors such as growing period, crop species and cultivar. This experiment was conducted to derivate Kc for three rice varieties, Hashemi as a local cultivar, Khazar as an improved cultivar and Bahar as a Hybrid cultivar, in paddy fields of Rice Research Institute of Iran in 2009 and 2010. The values of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) were measured with installing three cylindrical mini-lysimeter for each cultivar. Derivation of Kc were done based on five ETo estimation methods including FAO Penman-Monteith, Radiation, Blaney-Criddle, Pan Evaporation and Hargreaves. As a result, water requirements for Khazar (526 mm) and Bahar (490 mm) varieties were 14.6 and 6.8 percent higher than Hashemi (459 mm) cultivar, respectively. The crop coefficients were varied between 0.76 to 1.09 for initial stage, 1.15 to 1.48 for mid-season and 0.91 to 1.21 for late-season based on ETo estimation method and rice cultivar. Difference between the gained Kc in this study with the recommended values by FAO shows that derivation of crop coefficient based on local conditions is necessary. The obtained Kc based on different ETo methods can increase estimation accuracy of water requirement in availability limitation to meteorological data. The results of this study can be used by local project managers, consultants and irrigation engineers in designing water projects and scheduling of water delivery in irrigation and drainage networks.
