  abstract = {{S}tudies on soil-water management in the {N}ile {D}elta and {N}orthern {S}inai ({E}gypt) were carried out in 2011-2013 by the {I}nstitut de {R}echerche pour le {D}eveloppement. {T}he {E}l-{S}alam orange orchard was selected as a 'standard' station to study the management of appropriate irrigation, including the development of a model to assist in the management of irrigation of other crop covers in the {N}ile {D}elta. {T}he model simulated actual evapotranspiration with a one-day step resolution, using the approach of {P}enman-{M}onteith (with daily input data, i.e. standard data from the national network of weather stations), by taking account of the specificity of the crop cover (cover resistance). {W}e compared the amounts of irrigation applied to the orange orchard ({I}-mean = 994.3 mm.year(-1); 2.7 mm.day(-1); crop coefficient {E}a/{ET}0 = 0.78) with the requirements of water estimated by the model ({E}a(simulated)). {T}his comparison enabled us to propose a daily amount required for irrigation. {I}t is reasonable to sustain water losses of 94,570 m(3) water.year(-1) for the total area of the plantation (80 ha; drainage from the root zone), that is, 1,182 m(3) water.year(-1) . ha(-1). {T}hese water losses involve hydraulic adjustment of the sites of crop production and the costs of routing water.},
