Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Subsurface drip irrigation at 10 cm increased seed yield by 48% relative to surface drip irrigation.
- Observation Subsurface drip irrigation at 10 cm gave the highest irrigation water use efficiency.
- Observation Subsurface drip irrigation at 10 cm caused minimal soil disturbance.
- Intervention effect Irrigation during branch, full bloom, and pod set stages increased seed yield.
- Intervention effect Irrigation during branch, full bloom, and pod set stages increased water use efficiency.
- Association Irrigation timing and quantity were key factors in yield components and seed yield in random forest modeling.
- Association Temperature and precipitation were significant factors at each location.
- Association Irrigation time could affect seed size, chlorophyll, and protein concentration.
- Intervention effect Optimal irrigation timing prolonged seed maturation.
- Recommendation Authors recommended 10 cm irrigation lines and irrigation at branching and full bloom, with pod-set irrigation optional.
