Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Increasing irrigation frequency significantly decreased seasonal ETa.
- Intervention effect Adding inorganic and organic fertilizers significantly increased seasonal ETa compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Irrigation every 10 days with combined fertilizers gave the highest seasonal ETa (44.56 cm).
- Intervention effect Irrigation every 18 days with separate organic fertilizer gave the lowest seasonal ETa (37.79 cm).
- Intervention effect Increasing the irrigation interval from 10 to 14 days increased wheat grain yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing the irrigation interval to 18 days decreased wheat grain yield.
- Intervention effect Adding combined inorganic and organic fertilizers significantly increased grain yield compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Short 14-day irrigation with combined fertilizers increased grain yield.
- Intervention effect Long irrigation interval above 14 days with separate organic fertilizer decreased grain yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing irrigation frequency significantly decreased wheat water use efficiency.
- Intervention effect Adding inorganic and organic fertilizers significantly increased wheat water use efficiency compared with the control.
- Intervention effect The interaction of irrigation frequency and fertilizer type had no significant effect on water use efficiency.
- Intervention effect Short 14-day irrigation with combined fertilizers increased wheat water use efficiency.
- Recommendation Wheat should be irrigated at a short 14-day interval with combined inorganic and organic fertilizers in clay loam soil.
