- Intervention effect Straw mulching raised soil water storage at sowing by 105 mm over conventional treatment.
- Observation Wheat used the stored soil water after jointing.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate significantly influenced wheat population size before heading.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate produced no observed population size differences after heading.
- Observation Wheat grain yield ranged from 2 841 to 3 496 kg/hm2.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate had no prominent effect on grain yield.
- Intervention effect Mulching had no prominent effect on grain yield.
- Intervention effect High seeding rate significantly lowered harvest index relative to middle and low rates.
