Long-Term Conservation Tillage Increases Yield and Water Use Efficiency of Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by Regulating Substances Related to Stress on the Semi-Arid Loess Plateau of China

Abstract: Improving the water-use efficiency (WUE) of crops is the most effective way to increase yields in semi-arid regions. Field research was carried out based on a long-term experiment initiated in 2001, aimed to explore the mechanisms of different tillage practices effects on grain yield and WUE of spring wheat. Tillage practices in the research including conventional tillage (CT), no tillage with no straw mulching (NT), conventional tillage with straw incorporation (TS), and no tillage with straw mulching (NTS). … Show more

“…Wheat WUE was improved by straw mulching but not affected by stubble mulching. In the spring wheat field of the Loess Plateau, NT straw mulch led to the highest dry matter accumulation throughout the whole growth stage of spring wheat as compared with CT, NT alone, and CT straw mulch [122]. The average grain yields and WUE of NT straw mulch across three years were 6.0-30.7% and 6.7-40.5% higher than other tillage practices, respectively.…”

“…indigotica rotation, under different rotation modes, NT straw cover significantly increased the soil moisture content of the tillage layer [71]. In the semi-arid Loess Plateau of Gansu, China, the NT straw mulch treatment led to the lowest soil bulk and pH and the highest total nitrogen (TN), NO 3 −-N, and available P [122], which were accompanied by higher soil water content as compared with that of CT. In the chickpea field of India, NT60 led to a higher soil moisture content of 22.7% [76].…”
