Abstract
Cultivation of vegetable crops during dry periods of vegetation in the Non-Chernozem zone of Russia requires irrigation. The use of drip irrigation ensures a stable yield of white cabbage and preserves soil fertility. When calculating the irrigation regime for white cabbage, a formula is needed to calculate the total water consumption. Despite a large number of studies on determining the total water consumption of vegetable crops, there are no formulas for calculating the total water consumption of white cabbage on sod-podzolic soils in the Non-Chernozem zone of Russia using drip irrigation and evaporation. In this regard, studies were conducted in 2022-2023 on the territory of the Sergiyevo-Posadsky urban district of the Moscow Region, which allowed us to obtain a formula for calculating the total water consumption of white cabbage using evaporation under the conditions under consideration. The following coefficients were determined for this formula: the coefficients (Kper.) of the transition from evaporation to the potential water consumption of white cabbage; as well as the biological coefficients (Kbiol.) and the coefficients (Kvl.) that take into account the decrease in soil moisture below the optimal values for the studied crop. Comparison of the calculated data on the total water consumption of white cabbage with the actual data showed a strong correlation. The correlation coefficient of this relationship was 0.975 ±0.0315.
