Abstract

The studies in GIS environment have been conducted on the example of Lori region. The investigations are based on the spatial changes of irrigation zones and agro-climatic conditions of Armenia. During the research, irrigation water and crop water demand has been estimated in the following climate change conditions: T +2 0 C and 0.9 P (T - estimated air temperature, P - atmosphertic precipitations). In case of 5 %, 25 %, 50 %, 75 % and 95 % atmospheric precipitations the water intake from water source has been changed. Maximum water requirement for vegetable and cereal crops, as well as for perennial plantations per irrigation zones has been forecasted.
