Bo Zhou; Jianbin Zhou Journal of Northwest A&F University 2009

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Water use efficiency reached 50.3 kg/m3 with the specified fertilization and water saving irrigation.
Intervention effect At similar irrigation amounts, water use efficiency did not differ significantly between conventional and formula fertilization.
Intervention effect At similar fertilization amounts, water saving irrigation significantly improved water use efficiency over conventional irrigation.
Intervention effect Soil water at tomato harvest was lowest with the stated fertilizer amounts, 0.88×103 m3/hm2 below conventional irrigation and fertilization.
Observation Soil water at tomato harvest was 0.52×103 m3/hm2 below planting amounts.
Method / resource Tensiometer readings followed soil moisture changes and indicated soil water level.
Intervention effect Water saving irrigation and formula fertilization significantly increased tomato water use efficiency.
