This study has been undertaken to investigate the requirement of water for crops and optimum allocation of water. India is a tropical country so that amount of rainfall is variable, also population is increasing day by day so water demand is increasing. With increase of population food demand is also increased hence we need to improve food production to meet the demand of country. Agriculture is the main source of food, so to increase the yield of crops it is necessary to apply the required amount of water to the crop at required time. To achieve we can use modern technique to determine water requirements of crops and to prepare irrigation schedule. CROPWAT is a tool developed by FAO to compute crop water requirements and to prepare irrigation schedule. For this study, study area is taken viramgam region of Ahmedabad district.in this region the yield of crop cotton decreased during last two years so our aim is to provide CWR computation and irrigation schedule to improve this yield.
