127. Consumptive amount of use of a crop during growth, is the
A. interception
B. transpiration
C. evaporation
D. all the above.
128. Evaporation losses depend upon

D. all the above.
130. For calculating the evaporation rate over a reservoir surface E = 0.771 (1.465 - 0.00732 B) (0.44 - 0.007375 V) (pe -Pa), the equation is given by
A. Roohwer's formula in M.K.S.

131. In estimating the rate of evaporation from the reservoir surface, a pan 1.5 metres in diameter, was filled upto 8.0 cm. During a specified period of time, the rainfall recorded was 5 cm. 3 cm of water was removed from the pan to keep the depth of water. At the end of the time, the depth was 9 cm. If the pan coefficient is 0.6, the evaporation loss is
A. 2 mm
B. 4 mm
C. 6 mm
D. 6 mm.
132. Phytometer method is generally used for the measurement of
