The River Wadu role play — ten years experience

This paper describes a role playing planning exercise that has been used for training agriculturists, engineers and agricultural economists for more than ten years. It sets out the objectives and key features of the exercise and the experience that has been gained in its use. The exercise has been found to successfully test and integrate subject matter expertise acquired from formal teaching. It also highlights the multiple and often conflicting objectives of irrigation planning, and the need for full evaluation of alternatives and sound technical judgements under conditions of inadequate data and time pressure. The exercise is also successful in developing professional personal skills such as group working, interviewing and presentation, and is recommended as an effective training aid.

玉米收获机拉茎辊的改进设计

针对摘穗板-拉茎辊组合式摘穗装置在玉米收获过程中存在的问题,对拉茎辊进行改进设计。改进后的拉茎辊叶片轴采用无缝钢管经模具拉伸成型,整个叶片轴是一体的,叶片棱面为圆弧结构,并且将叶片轴后端与销轴连接的卡槽尺寸加大,加装金属耐磨套。该改进方案解决了传统拉茎辊易开焊、振动大、寿命短等问题。利用Solid Works软件对改进后拉茎辊进行有限元分析得知:应力和最大应变主要分布在拉茎辊后端的U型槽内,最大位移分布在叶片棱上,都在材料的变化范围内,改进方案合理。

内蒙古河套灌区节水工程改造效果分析与评估

以内蒙古河套灌区1982—2012年长系列农业净引水量和年降水量资料为基础,运用均值分析、方差分析、相关分析、时间序列分析和生存分析等数理统计学方法,并结合内蒙古河套灌区农业种植发展进程,分析了河套灌区多年农业净引水量变化趋势与影响因素,得出年降水量(超过211.76 mm时,即丰水年)和节水工程改造分别独立地与农业净引水量呈明显负相关关系的结论。运用时间序列法预测了2013、2014和2015年河套灌区的农业净引水量分别为44.5、44.18和43.86亿m3;同时运用生存分析法预测了在灌区现有节水改造规模条件下,河套灌区农业净引水量区间为35~55亿m3,平均为45亿m3。     

Incorporation of ridge and furrow method of rainfall harvesting with mulching for crop production under semiarid conditions

A plastic-covered ridge and furrow rainfall harvesting (PRFRH) system combined with mulches was designed to increase water availability to crops for improving and stabilizing agricultural production in the semiarid Loess region of northwest China. The system was built by shaping the soil surface with alternate ridges and furrows along the contour. The plastic-covered ridges served as a rainfall harvesting zone and furrows as a planting zone. Some materials were also used to mulch the furrows to increase the effectiveness of the harvested water. This system can make better utilization of light rain by harvesting rainwater through the plastic-covered ridge. The field experiment (using corn as an indicator crop) showed that grain yields in the PRFRH system with mulches in 1998 and 1999 were significantly higher than the controls, with an increase of 4010–5297 kg per ha (108–143%). In most treatments, the water use efficiencies (WUE) were in excess of 2.0 kg m⁻³. The WUE values of corn in this system were 1.9 times greater than the controls in 1998 and 1.4 times greater than the controls in 1999. The plastic-covered ridge led to a yield increase of 3430 kg per ha (92%) in 1998 and of 1126 kg per ha (21%) in 1999 compared with the uncovered ridge. On average, the additional mulches in the furrow brought about a yield increase of 8–25%. Based on the results of this study and other researches, this technique can increase corn grain yield by 60–95% in drought and average years, 70–90% in wet years, and 20–30% in very wet years. The PRFRH system had the potential to increase crop yield and produced greater economic benefit, therefore it could be used in regions dominated by light rainfall of low intensity where crops generally fail due to water stress.

黄土高原半干旱区退耕还林对土壤微量元素的影响

为了探明黄土高原半干旱区退耕还林对土壤微量元素(Cu、Zn、Mn、Mo、Fe)含量的影响及其与影响因子间的关系,以甘肃省关川河流域退耕还林地和农地为研究对象,使用有效性评价、通径分析等方法研究土壤微量元素与土壤环境变量间的关系。结果表明:退耕后土壤微量元素含量随土层深度增加而减少,在表层土壤中呈一定的富集现象。退耕地Cu、Mn、Mo的有效性指数高于Zn、Fe,侧柏林地有效性综合指数高于云杉林地。偏相关分析显示,退耕还林区土壤微量元素有效态含量的主要影响因素为土壤有机质、全钾、全氮与土壤含水率;回归分析显示,土壤环境因子可解释38.1%~73.8%有关土壤微量元素含量的变异;通径分析表明,土壤全钾对土壤微量元素的直接作用最大,土壤全氮对微量元素的间接作用最大;决策分析表明,土壤全钾与土壤有机质是退耕还林区微量元素含量的决策变量,而土壤含水率是土壤微量元素的限制变量。
