✦ Synopsis

The rate of water used by non-irrigated unpruned tea in Malawi was found to depend on the soil water deficit although this rate was modified when the tea was pruned. Irrigated tea used water at a fairly constant rate of 0.9E0 although some modification occurred due to weather factors. The results of sampling for water use have been employed to produce a model for predicting water status of tea soils.

It was also found that yield in the months of September, October and November were well correlated with water deficit at the beginning of each month.

## Abstract The validation of soil water balance models and the evaluation of the quality of the model predictions at field‐scale require time‐series of __in situ__ measured model outputs. In our study, we have validated such a model using a 6‐year period with time‐series of automatically recorded,
