Irrigation water scheduling is crucial to make the most efficient use of ever-decreasing water. As excessive irrigation decreases yield, while imprecise application also causes various environmental issues. Therefore, efficient management of irrigation frequency and irrigation level is necessary to sustain productivity under limited water conditions. The objective of the current study is to assess the water productivity at various irrigation regimes during peanut crop growing seasons (2014 and 2015) in Eastern Mediterranean, Turkey. The field experiments were conducted with treatments consisting of three irrigation frequencies (IF) (IF₁: 25 mm; IF₂: 50 mm; and IF₃: 75 mm of cumulative pan evaporation (CPE)), and four irrigation water levels (WL₁ = 0.50, WL₂ = 0.75, WL₃ = 1.0, and WL₄ = 1.25). WL₁, WL₂, WL₃, and WL₄ treatments received 50, 75, 100, and 125 of cumulative pan evaporation. The CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model was calibrated with experimental data in 2014 and evaluated with second-year experimental data (2015). The model simulated seed yield and final biomass (dry matter) reasonably well with low normalized root mean square error (RMSEₙ) in various irrigation intervals. The model simulated reasonably well for days to anthesis (RMSE = 2.53, d-stat = 0.96, and r² = 0.90), days to physiological maturity (RMSE = 2.55), seed yield (RMSE = 1504), and tops biomass dry weight at maturity (RMSE = 3716). Simulation results indicated good agreement between measured and simulated soil water content (SWC) with low RMSEₙ values (4.0 to 16.8% in 2014 and 4.3 to 18.2% in 2015). Further results showed that IF₂I₁₂₅ irrigation regime produced the highest seed yield. Generally, model evaluation performed reasonably well for all studied parameters with both years’ experimental data. Results also showed that the crop model would be a precision agriculture tool for the extrapolation of the allocation of irrigation water resources and decision management under current and future climate.
