Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation raised wheat grain yield 17.9% versus conventional irrigation.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation increased spike number, kernels per spike and grain weight.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation kept flag leaf chlorophyll above conventional and rain fed levels after anthesis.
- Observation Rain fed wheat had the lowest flag leaf chlorophyll concentration.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation enhanced catalase and peroxidase activity.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation reduced malondialdehyde content.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation promoted dry matter remobilization and production after anthesis.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation increased the contribution of dry matter to grain yield.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation boosted root growth.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler irrigation enhanced root activity during grain filling.
- Intervention effect Water use efficiency did not significantly differ between micro sprinkler and rain fed irrigation in 2021–2022.
- Intervention effect Rain fed water use efficiency was significantly lower than micro sprinkler in 2022–2023.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler increased water use efficiency over conventional irrigation by 15.1% in the first year.
- Intervention effect Micro sprinkler increased water use efficiency over conventional irrigation by 17.6% in the second year.
- Intervention effect Topsoil compaction increased grain yield under rain fed conditions.
- Intervention effect Topsoil compaction increased water use efficiency under rain fed conditions.
- Intervention effect Topsoil compaction improved spike numbers and dry matter production under rain fed conditions.
- Recommendation The authors recommend topsoil compaction in rain fed conditions to improve grain yield and water use efficiency.
- Recommendation The authors recommend micro sprinkler irrigation for high yield and water use efficiency in the Huaibei Plain.
