Effects of different soil conservation tillage approaches on soil nutrients,water use and wheat-maize yield in rainfed dry-land regions of North China

Excessive tillage compromises soil quality by causing severe water shortages that can lead to crop failure. Reports on the effects of conservation tillage on major soil nutrients, water use efficiency and gain yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) in rainfed regions in the North China Plain are relatively scarce. In this work, four tillage approaches were tested from 2004 to 2012 in a randomized study performed in triplicate: one conventional tillage and three conservation tillage experiments with straw mulching (no tillage during wheat and maize seasons, subsoiling during the maize season but no tillage during the wheat season, and ridge planting during both wheat and maize seasons). Compared with conventional tillage, by 2012, eight years of conservation tillage treatments (no tillage, subsoiling and ridge planting) resulted in a significant increase in available phosphorus in topsoil (0–0.20 m), by 3.8%, 37.8% and 36.9%, respectively. Soil available potassium was also increased following conservation tillage, by 13.6%, 37.5% and 25.0%, and soil organic matter by 0.17%, 5.65% and 4.77%, while soil total nitrogen was altered by −2.33%, 4.21% and 1.74%, respectively. Meanwhile, all three conservation tillage approaches increased water use efficiency, by 19.1–28.4% (average 24.6%), 10.1–23.8% (average 15.9%) and 11.2–20.7% (average 15.7%) in wheat, maize and annual, respectively. Additionally, wheat yield was increased by 7.9–12.0% (average 10.3%), maize yield by 13.4–24.6% (average 17.4%) and rotation annual yield by 12.3–16.9% (average 14.1%). Overall, our findings demonstrate that subsoiling and ridge planting with straw mulching performed better than conventional tillage for enhancing major soil nutrients and improving grain yield and water use efficiency in rainfed regions in the North China Plain.     

栽培槽大小对日光温室架式栽培番茄生长发育、水肥利用和产量品质的影响

利用封闭式循环供液高架栽培系统,研究了栽培槽大小(横切面宽度×深度:20cm×10cm,20cm×15cm,20cm×20cm)和钵栽(直径12cm×高10cm,基质容积1L)对架式栽培番茄(3穗果摘心)生长发育、水肥利用及产量品质的影响。结果表明:与钵栽相比,槽栽促进番茄植株生长,增加产量,但开花和采收时间延迟,果实品质下降,水肥利用效率降低;随着栽培槽体积的增大,植株生长旺盛,干物质积累量增加,但水肥利用效率降低,果实品质下降,不同大小栽培槽处理间水分利用效率和单株产量差异不显著。综合产量、品质及水肥利用效率等指标,番茄架式栽培槽大小以20cm×10cm为宜。     

江南桤木育苗技术的研究

本文研究了江南桤木不同播种量和不同水分管理方法的育苗效果。结果表明，播种量以45kg／hm2量为宜，苗木高生长、地径生长和优质苗产量均优于其他几种处理方法；水分管理以“湿管法”育苗效果最好，苗木的高生长、地径生长和优质苗产量与“水管法”、常规育苗方法间均存在显著差异。

提高藏东地区节水灌溉水平的几点思考

灌区渠道渗漏、坍塌现象突出,致使过水能力、灌溉水利用系数低的问题在藏东地区十分严重,,主要原因既有地质条件等客观因素,也有规划建设和营运管理相对落后等主观原因。要解决这一问题,除了采用管理和技术手段维护好现有的灌溉工程外,更重要的是还要在解决农牧区新灌区规划设计及灌溉节水的工作思路上有所突破。

《中国水土保持科学》性质及学科分类

根据期刊性质和学科分类方法,以文献数量为依据对《中国水土保持科学》进行分类。结果发现,《中国水土保持科学》2010年刊登的文献以学术性为主,农业基础科学类、农艺学类文献分别占当年发表文献总量的63.38%、49.30%,其余学科文献均较少,不能划入相应学科,因此应将该刊同时归类为农业基础科学类和农艺学类专业学术期刊。
