Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect HS application increased watermelon early yield by 38.6% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Early watermelon yield mainly increased under deficit irrigation.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation increased water use efficiency compared with full irrigation.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation did not significantly affect total watermelon yield compared with full irrigation.
- Intervention effect HS application significantly increased soil organic carbon content.
- Association Soil organic carbon was positively correlated with crop WUE.
- Recommendation Soil organic inputs with HS and deficit irrigation are valuable strategies for sustainable watermelon production systems.
