砂石覆盖厚度和粒径对土壤蒸发的影响

在干旱半干旱地区,砂石覆盖作为一项传统的覆盖技术,可以明显减少土壤蒸发,为作物生长提供良好的水分条件。为研究不同粒径和厚度砂石覆盖对土壤蒸发的影响,进行了室内模拟试验,对3种粒径(2.5~10、10~25和25~40 mm)和2种覆盖厚度(8 cm和14 cm)以及不同粒径砂石配比条件下土壤水分蒸发进行了研究。结果表明,砂石覆盖能有效地抑制土壤蒸发,在土壤含水量较高的阶段,这种抑制作用更加明显。砂石覆盖对土壤蒸发的抑制作用与粒径和覆盖厚度密切相关,在2.5~40 mm粒径范围内,随着砂石粒径的增大,砂石覆盖对蒸发的抑制作用降低,对蒸发过程的影响减弱,覆盖厚度越大,蒸发量越小。有效的砂石配比应选择细砂石处理,不宜过粗。

黄土高原坡地枣树地膜微集水造林效果研究

在黄土高原丘陵沟壑区,采用田间试验研究了地膜微集水造林技术对提高枣树成活率、土壤温度以及枣树根区土壤水分含量的影响。结果表明:地膜微集水方法提高枣树移栽期0~100cm土层土壤水分,提高0~20 cm土层地温,造林成活率较对照提高15%;在枣树生长期和发芽期,土壤0~100 cm剖面含水量比对照高30.3%;在集中降雨后48 h内,土壤水分下渗深度比对照深34 cm,达到67 cm。该方法成本低、操作简单、效率高,可以在黄土高原枣树栽植中推广应用。

地表覆盖方式对辣椒水分利用效率、果实品质及氮素分布的影响

研究了地表覆盖方式对辣椒(Capsicum anmuum L.)水分利用效率、品质、叶片硝酸还原酶活性及植株和土壤中氮素分布的影响。结果表明,覆盖可增加辣椒整个生育期土壤水分含量。覆盖地膜和覆盖秸秆+地膜比其他地表处理方式能显著增加辣椒的产量和经济收入,提高产量水分利用效率和经济水分利用效率。覆盖可显著降低耕作层(0—20 cm)土壤硝态氮含量,且随着土层深度的增加,硝态氮含量显著降低,但对各土壤铵态氮含量无显著影响。对品质而占,覆盖地膜处理辣椒果实pH、维生素C含量显著高于其他处理,且其电导率、阳离子交换量和硝酸盐含量显著低于其他处理。覆盖可增强叶片硝酸还原酶活性,降低叶片中的全氮含量,显著降低每百千克产量氮肥吸收量。从提高辣椒的品质、环境安全、肥料利用和经济效益各因素考虑,生产中辅以科学的水分管理,覆盖地膜和覆盖秸秆+地膜是可行的地表覆盖方式。

栽培和施肥模式对黄土区旱地土壤微生物量及可溶性有机碳、氮的影响

以黄土高原南部地区的两个定位试验为基础,研究了旱地不同栽培和施肥模式对土壤微生物量碳、氮和可溶性有机碳、氮的影响。结果表明,秸秆覆盖显著提高土壤微生物量氮(SMBN)含量,地膜覆盖使SMBN含量显著降低;秸秆和地膜覆盖显著降低小麦拔节期和灌浆期土壤可溶性有机氮(SON)含量。适量施用化学氮肥(120kg/hm2)有利于小麦生长后期SMBN含量的升高,而过量施用(240 kg/hm2)显著降低SMBN含量。与不施肥处理相比,土地经长期撂荒后0-10 cm土层SMBC,SMBN,SOC和SON含量显著提高;氮磷钾配施有机肥显著提高小麦各生育期0-10,10-20 cm土层SMBC,SMBN,SOC和SON的含量;单施氮磷钾肥对土壤SMBC,SMBN含量无明显影响,提高土壤SOC,SON的平均含量。土壤SMBC,SMBN,SOC和SON含量两两之间呈极显著正相关关系,四者含量与土壤有机碳、全氮含量间的正相关关系也达显著或极显著水平。

旱地地膜和秸秆双元覆盖栽培下小麦产量与水分效应

通过覆盖措施提高水分利用率对旱地农业生产具有重要意义。该文采用田间对比试验,研究了旱地冬小麦几种覆盖栽培下产量、水分利用率、土壤水分剖面和硝态氮的分布的差异。结果表明,地膜和秸秆双元覆盖模式下小麦籽粒产量比对照增产12.11%～17.65%,水分利用效率(WUE)比常规栽培提高7.2%～30.8%,土壤0～20 cm土层的含水量提高到12%～16%,硝态氮含量提高到4.70～10.17 mg/kg。地膜和秸秆双元覆盖模式能够显著的提高作物产量和水分利用率,并显著增加耕层土壤中水分含量和硝态氮含量,减轻了土壤剖面硝态氮的淋溶累积。

半干旱区施氮和灌溉条件下覆膜对春玉米产量及氮素平衡的影响

以典型半干旱区干湿砂质新成土(Ust-Sandic Entisols)为供试土壤进行田间试验,研究地膜覆盖、施氮及补充灌水量对春玉米(Zea maysL.)产量、土壤矿质氮(NO3--N和NH4+-N)及氮素平衡的影响。结果表明,0—100 cm土体范围内,随着土层加深,播前和收获后土壤NO3--N含量呈降低趋势,NH4+-N有所增加,但变幅不大;总矿质氮量(NO3--N和NH4+-N)表现为下降。说明地膜覆盖和施氮并没有使NO3--N深层累积量增加,这可能与土壤本身供氮能力严重不足有关。与不施氮相比,施氮各处理氮肥表观损失量增加;与不覆膜相比,作物氮素累积量比不覆膜显著增加(P<0.05)。在低灌(80 mm)覆膜和高灌(160 mm)覆膜条件下,玉米的氮肥利用率均比不覆膜提高了18.8%,说明覆膜低灌在相同施氮条件下,可节约80 mm灌水。但低灌(80 mm)与高灌(160 mm)不覆膜间氮肥利用率差异不显著,表明在相同施氮条件下,覆膜可有效提高氮肥利用率,减少氮素损失。综合考虑子粒产量和氮肥利用率,"覆膜+补灌80 mm+施氮90 kg/hm2"可能为本试验条件下较优的栽培模式。

冬小麦田秸秆覆盖的小气候效应

The winter wheat field straw mulching was conducted. Compared with the unmulched field, the straw mulching could alter turbulent heat exchange, evaporative heat loss and soil heat fluxes, and improve the temperature and humidity of air close to the ground as well as play a active role in water-saving and soil moisture retention, thus provided better microclimatic conditions for the growth and development of winter wheat.

施氮和不同栽培模式对半湿润农田生态系统冬小麦根系特征的影响

Effectiveness of coir geotextiles in soil moisture conservation

Among the diversified use of coir geotextiles, its use as a protective covering to improve crop productivity and to reduce weed problem assumes to be much significant. An experiment has been conducted at Kumbazha, in Pathanamthitta district, Kerala, India to evaluate the different types of coir geotextiles and polythene as soil mulch. The treatments include different mulching materials like natural needled felt, black needled felt, rubberized coir, black polythene and transparent polythene along with a control plot (no mulch). The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design with six replications. The test crops used were bhindi (var. Salkeerthi) and pineapple (var. Mauritius). The study reveals that with bhindi crop growth parameters like plant height, leaf number and lateral spread were increased by mulching with rubberized coir and transparent polythene. These two mulches caused early flowering and increased fruit yield. Coir materials as mulch recorded a yield increase ranging from 67 to 196%. Observations also reveal that weeds were not grown in plots mulched with black polythene, transparent polythene and rubberized coir. Rubberized coir as mulch enhanced the fruit yield in the case of pineapple, which is followed by natural needled felt and transparent polythene. Black polythene resisted weed growth up to 7MAP, whereas rubberized coir and transparent polythene suppressed weeds up to 8MAP. Though the weeds were grown in other treatments the weeds count was significantly lower than that of control plot. Mulching with transparent polythene enhanced the soil temperature whereas rubberized coir lowered soil temperature. More over all mulched treatments had a favourable influence in increasing soil moisture. Observing the biodegradability and eco-friendly nature of coir it could be inferred that rubberized coir can serve as good mulch for bhindi and pineapple with minimum weed problem

Mechanisms of residue mulch-induced cereal growth increases in West Africa

The use of crop residues (CR) has been widely reported as a means of increasing crop yields across West Africa. However, little has been done to compare the magnitude and mechanisms of CR effects systematically in the different agro-ecological zones of the region. To this end, a series of field trials with millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.), sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], and maize (Zea mays L.) was conducted over a 4-yr period in the Sahelian, Sudanian, and Guinean zones of West Africa. Soils ranged in pH from 4.1 to 5.4 along a rainfall gradient from 510 to 1300 mm. Treatments in the factorial experiments were three CR rates (0,500, and 2000 kg ha^-1)and several levels of phosphorus and nitrogen. The results showed CR-induced total dry matter (TDM) increases in cereals up to 73% for the Sahel compared with a maximum of 16% in the wetter Sudanian and Guinean zones. Residue effects on weakly buffered Sahelian soils were due to improved P availability and to a protection of seedlings against wind erosion. Additional effects of CR mulching on topsoil properties in the Sahel were a decrease in peak temperatures by 4°C and increased water availability. These mulch effects on soil chemical and physical properties strongly decreased from North to South. Likely explanations for this decrease are the decline of dust deposition and wind erosion hazards, the higher soil clay content, lower air temperature, and a faster decomposition rate of mulch material with increasing rainfall from the Sahel to the Sudanian and Guinean zones.
