Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect T1 increased available soil moisture by 6.8% versus CK.
- Intervention effect T2 increased available soil moisture by 19.3% versus CK.
- Intervention effect At filling, T1 increased maize photosynthetic rate by 24.1%.
- Intervention effect At filling, T2 increased maize photosynthetic rate by 40.3%.
- Intervention effect At filling, T3 increased maize photosynthetic rate by 53.8%.
- Intervention effect At maturity, T1 photosynthetic rate exceeded CK by 20.0%.
- Intervention effect At maturity, T2 photosynthetic rate exceeded CK by 40.3%.
- Intervention effect At maturity, T3 photosynthetic rate exceeded CK by 37.9%.
- Intervention effect At 18.2% drought occurrence per ten days, mulching did not significantly change maize yield.
- Observation Yield difference became significant across the stated drought range.
- Observation T1 gave maximum yield at drought occurrence of 18.2% to 36.4% per ten days.
- Observation T3 gave maximum yield at 54.5% drought occurrence per ten days.
- Recommendation Mulching was unsuitable for drought resistance above 63.6% drought occurrence per ten days.
- Recommendation The authors recommended 5 000 kg·hm-2 straw mulch in southern hilly red soils.
