Abstract
The value and method of application of the Black Bellani plate atmometer for estimation of the irrigation requirement of the tomato canning crop was studied between 1955 and 1958 at the Smithfield Substation, This method was shown to be equal or superior in value to other methods of estimating irrigation requirements, including the Plaster of Paris soil moisture block. The method was tested in comparison with soil moisture block procedures over a 2-year period and soil moisture deficit and yield results by the two methods compared. The details of the method used are outlined and suggestions made for a further refinement in application of the data.
