SUMMARY Daily measurements of moisture by neutron probe showed an erratic pattern of ET in the Sudan Gezira, attributed to the redistribution of water and development of cracks in a drying profile. However, dividing an irrigation cycle into periods of 3–5 days revealed a unique trend of ET that was consistently low in the early period, increased to a maximum in the middle, and fell off at the end. Roots suffer from anaerobic conditions for about 5 days after flooding but subsequent drying and cracking improves soil aeration that leads to final depletion of profile moisture and depression of ET.
