Under dryland conditions after periods of substantial rains, evapotranspiration from oats, winter wheat, and native grass was as high as 2.0, 1.5. and 1.0 times the evaporation from a BPI pan. During periods of similar water availability, the ratio of ET to E pan for sudangrass was similar to that for native grass, whereas the ratio for sorghum and millet was about the same as that for wheat.
