Abstract

The effects of drip irrigation and furrow irrigation on growth,yield,water consumption,and water productivity(WP)in the watermelon-cotton intercropping system were analyzed.The results showed that drip irrigation with mulch was better than furrow irrigation for the watermelon-cotton intercropping system.Compared to the furrow irrigation,the leaf area index of drip irrigation treatment was greater,whose irrigation amounts were reduced by 62.9mm in the symbiotic period for watermelon and129.9mm during the whole growth stage for cotton.The watermelon yield,cotton yield and WP under drip irrigation increased by 14.9%,9.2% and 40.39% compared to furrow irrigation,respectively.Drip irrigation with mulch had a greater advantage to develop agricultural production in the watermelon-cotton intercropping system.
