Hii Friends!
can anyone please make me clear that; does the Rainfall provided in climate tab, contributes for water supply for irrigation while modeling catchmnet using soil moisture method in WEAP. If it is true, then how to accomodate this contribution to the water supply.

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi Lokesh,
You can tell WEAP how much Runoff in your model is available for irrigation. See Soil Moisture Method Irrigation in the WEAP help:

You might also explore the MABIA method if irrigation is a significant element of your model.
