Thus, four single machine learning models (XGB, RF, LASSO, and CatBoost) and eight hybrid machine learning models (XGB-RF, XGB-LASSO, XGB-CatBoost, RF-LASSO, CatBoost-LASSO, CatBoost-RF, XGB-RF-LASSO, and XGB-CatBoost-LASSO) were used, along with stacking ensembles, with five scenarios including climate and crop parameters and remote sensing-based indices. The highest R2 value for predicting wheat BWFP was achieved with XGB-LASSO under scenario 4 at 100%, while the minimum was 0.16 with LASSO under scenario 3 (remote sensing indices). To predict wheat GWFP, the highest R2 value of 100% was achieved with RF-LASSO across scenario 1 (all parameters), scenario 2 (climate parameters), scenario 4 (Peeff, Tmax, Tmin, and SA), and scenario 5 (Peeff and Tmax). The lowest value was recorded with LASSO and scenario 3. The use of individual and hybrid machine learning models showed high efficiency in predicting the blue and green water footprint of wheat, with high ratings according to statistical performance standards. However, the hybrid programs, whether binary or triple, outperformed both the single models and stacking ensemble.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16224224","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,13]],"date-time":"2024-11-13T06:23:16Z","timestamp":1731478996000},"page":"4224","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Forecasting Blue and Green Water Footprint of Wheat Based on Single, Hybrid, and Stacking Ensemble Machine Learning Algorithms Under Diverse Agro-Climatic Conditions in Nile Delta, Egypt"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-6188-8415","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ashrakat A.","family":"Lotfy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt"},{"name":"Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, 70010 Bari, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8799-8031","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohamed E.","family":"Abuarab","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6152-9325","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eslam","family":"Farag","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Agriculture Applications Department, National Authority for Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, Cairo 1564, Egypt"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6251-8601","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bilal","family":"Derardja","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, 70010 Bari, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2117-1557","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roula","family":"Khadra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, 70010 Bari, Italy"}]},{"given":"Ahmed A.","family":"Abdelmoneim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, 70010 Bari, Italy"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Mokhtar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Elkholy, M.
