Abstract

Two years field plot experiment was conducted to study the effects of different N application rates on the yield and nitrogen utilization efficiency of summer maize(Zhengdan958). The results indicated that the yield increased at first and then decreased with the increase of N application rates, and the relationship of yield to N application rates corresponded to quadratic equation. Reasonable N application rate increased grain yield significantly. With the increase of N application rate harvest index(HI) and N harvest index(NHI) decreased. The highest HI and NHI was obtained at N application of 189 kg/ha(N189) and 178 kg/ha(N178). Excessive N application rate reduced N recovery efficiency(NRE) and N partial fertilizer productivity(NPFP) by 29%-55% and 32-64 kg/kg compared with N189and N178, respectively. Agronomic efficiency(AE) and physiological efficiency(PE) increased at first then decreased with the increase N application rate, and the highest AE and PE were appeared at N application rate of 200 kg/ha.Surface soil NO3--N content at mature stage and N apparent losses ratio increased with the increase of nitrogen application when N rates were over 200 kg/ha. Comprehensive consideration, the recommendation of N application rate for summer maize should be controlled in less than 200 kg/ha.
