Water received and weather conditions experienced on the day gas exchange measurements were taken for both cowpea and triticale.
| Cowpea | Triticale | |
|---|---|---|

Moisture level | ||
| Well-watered (mm) | 348 | 450 |
| Water stressed (mm) | 121 | 226 |

Weather conditions | ||
| Minimum T (°C) | 11 | 4 |
| Maximum T (°C) | 24 | 23 |
| VPD (kPa) | 1.1 | 1.1 |
| Minimum RH (%) | 33.1 | 31.5 |
| Maximum RH (%) | 82.4 | 83.6 |
| Radiation (MJ/m2) | 27.4 | 20.8 |
VPD is vapour pressure deficit, RH is relative humidity, T is temperature.
