e1“Irrigation improved wheat yield by enhancing evapotranspiration, spike number, grain number, and 1000-seed weight”
e2“Four irrigation strategies (W0, no irrigation; W1, pre-sowing irrigation; W2, pre-sowing + jointing irrigation; and W3, pre-sowing + jointing + anthesis irrigation) were adopted for wheat”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Irrigation enhanced evapotranspiration, spike number and grain number in wheat.
- Intervention effect Irrigation enhanced 1000-seed weight in wheat.
- Intervention effect The water-limited gap in yield and WP between W2 and W1 was significantly higher than the gaps between W1 and W0 and between W3 and W2.
- Association Wheat yield was affected by cumulative precipitation to jointing (P1) rather than by total precipitation.
- Intervention effect Different irrigation in the wheat season had no effect on subsequent maize in normal years.
- Intervention effect W1 increased maize yield by 13.2–29.3% compared with other treatments in dry years.
- Intervention effect W1 increased maize water productivity by 16.1–41.8% compared with other treatments in dry years.
- Recommendation The authors recommend W2 to achieve higher annual yield, WP and net income in normal years.
- Recommendation The authors recommend W1 to lower irrigation water consumption and achieve higher WP and economic benefits in dry years.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that W2 is the suitable irrigation strategy in wheat production.
