Farmland mulching and optimized irrigation increase water productivity and seed yield by regulating functional parameters of soybean (Glycine max L.) leaves

Agricultural Water Management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 298, С. 108875 - 108875

In both arid and semi-arid regions, adopting field mulching can effectively optimize soil moisture distribution, enhance crop yields, improve water productivity. While acknowledging its advantages, seems insufficient for maintaining high productivity due to the increasing frequency of extreme weather. Furthermore, drought often coincides with critical growth stages, necessitating implementation agricultural irrigation ensure normal growth. Accordingly, we conducted a three-year experiment from 2021 2023 including three typical methods (no mulching, NM; straw SM; plastic film FM) supplementary strategies (irrigated at branching stage (V4), W1; irrigated pod-filling (R2), W2; V4 R2 stage, W3). Throughout entire period, monitored conditions each treatment, measured leaf physiological parameters crucial assessed soybean yields (WP). Our findings indicated that, relative SM NM, FM maintains optimal balance, augments chlorophyll content, enhances photosynthesis, resulting in an average yield increase 17.0% 38.3% over growing seasons. Additionally, also significantly affects seed soybean. FMW2 achieved higher (4307.5 kg ha−1, 3-year averaged), had insignificant difference highest 4568.6 than other treatments. Similarly, area index, net photosynthetic rate (Pn) transpiration (Tr) presented between FMW3, while WUEleaf (Pn/Tr) obviously that FMW3. As result, WP 12.2 ha−1 mm−1 seasons, compared treatments, ranges 5.6% 46.7%. summary, treatment optimized distribution meet demands soybeans during reproductive achieving beneficial balance production by regulating functional parameters. Future research will explore more specific scheduling techniques (e.g., precision irrigation, deficit sensor-based management systems) integrating innovative materials biodegradable films) further resilience under evolving climatic conditions.

Long-term intensive tillage has led to soil environment degradation, reduced fertility, difficulty in increasing maize yield, and low nitrogen (N) use efficiency the Mollisol region of northeast China. In order raise yield improve hydrothermal environment, we conducted field experiments investigate effects different practices straw returning on N fertilizer recovery loss, aiming increase both rate. Four treatments were established: flat no-tillage with full mulching (NM), ridge (RM), rotary incorporation (RR), conventional without (CK) as control treatment. The two-year results indicate that increased 15N rate, accompanied by improvements water content (SWC) regulation temperature changes, compared CK Specifically, total rate RM was significantly 15.23% 23.46%, while losses notably 14.99% 25.12%, respectively, NM RR treatments. Additionally, 3.10% 2021 1.97% 2022 (P < 0.05), it 2.06% 0.91% > 0.05). mean SWC 0–100-cm layer 7.99% 5.74% 8.09%, 5.50% during growth seasons. At 60–80 days after sowing (DAS), when air higher, lower than treatments, 0.46 ℃ 0.54 0.31 0.70 2022. However, decreased at 100–140 DAS, 0.69 0.81 0.73 0.94 Our study indicates treatment is most suitable practice method

Drip Fertigation with Moderate Nitrogen Topdressing Rate Achieves High Nitrogen and Water Use Efficiencies for Irrigated Wheat

Agronomy, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(2), С. 259 - 259

Опубликована: Янв. 21, 2025

Drip fertigation (DF) can improve yield, water use efficiency (WUE), and nitrogen (NUE, grain production per unit of the sum soil inherent mineral N fertilizer N), as well reduce risk environmental pollution compared with flood irrigation broadcast (FB). Previously, we showed that DF enhanced response yield to topdressing rate (NTR), but underlying mechanisms associated supply, root architecture, uptake remain unclear. We conducted a field experiment by testing six treatments (no applied, NTRs 0, 40, 80, 120, 160 kg ha−1, denoted N0, T0, T40, T80, T120, T160, respectively) under FB from 2021 2023. Compared FB, NUE WUE were 4.8–4.9% 10.0–10.5% higher DF. The was due an improvement in (6.1–7.7%) resulting aboveground (AGN). greater AGN attributed availability at depth 0–40 cm. decreased residual NO3−-N 40–200 cm increased In addition, combined T80 achieved high length density, surface dry weight density improved WUE. efficient utilization N, NTR threshold 61.75–119.50 which conditions similar those experimental site. Our results provide reference for high-efficiency usage irrigated winter wheat North China.

Опубликована: Сен. 29, 2023

Plastic film mulching has been widely used to improve crop yield and water use efficiency, although the effects of plastic on water, heat, nitrogen dynamics, growth are rarely presented comprehensively. This study investigated a large number studies in fields from past 10 years (mostly 2019 2023) summarized impact mulching, progress modeling with future research directions. The were intricate influenced by methods, irrigation systems, types, stages, etc. Overall, showed positive effect improving soil temperature, status, enhancing transpiration photosynthetic rates, promoting yield, may have negative effects, such as increasing rainfall interception, blocking entering soil, reducing net radiation income. efficiency could increase 39.9–84.7% 45.3–106.4% under various methods. Coupled models heat transport conditions established considering upper boundary energy budget distribution processes, exchange latent sensible between atmosphere. good applicability mulched farmland maize, rice, potato for different regions China. Further development is needed migration, acquisition indicators based big data support. will provide reference subsequent innovation technology.

Long-term pure forest (PF) management and successive planting has result resulted in "low-efficiency artificial forests" large areas. However, controversy persists over the promoting effect of introduction broadleaf tree species on production efficiency PF. This study hypothesised that introduced can significantly promote both water-nutrient use gross primary productivity (GPP)of Tree ring chronologies, water source, GPP were analysed coniferous Cunninghamia lanceolata broadleaved Phoebe zhennan growing past three decades. The P. into C. plantations inter-specific competition for water, probably because similarity main source these two species. absorbed more with a higher nutrient level from 40-60-cm soil layer mixed forests (MF). Although co-existing limited basal area increment growth rates MF plots, acquisition dissolved nutrients fertile topsoil enhanced; this increased plots. To achieve better ecological benefits GPP, MFs should be constructed southern China.
