These are yearly crop coefficient plots for each year of the two peach plantings in the lysimeter. Both varieties were planted at a 6'x16' spacing and trained to a Kearney "V" system (Kearney Perpendicular "V" Training System - 1994).
The lysimeter at Kearney has been used to measure peach water use. It is essentially a large planter box on top of a sensitive truck scale. It can accurately measure the hourly loss of water by soil evaportation and tree transpiration (evapotranspiration or ETc).
