Suitable Amounts of Water and Fertilizer for Dense Planting of Walnut Trees Under Drip Irrigation in Northwest Margin of Tarim Basin
[Objective] The appropriate quantities of water and fertilizer were determined to understand their efficient utilization for walnut trees under drip irrigation in the Northwest Margin of Tarim Basin
which is a main production area of walnuts. The aim was to provide guidance for the extent of irrigation and nitrogen input to be used for drip irrigation for local dense planting of walnut trees.[Methods] The field experiment was conducted in the fruit trees experimental base of Xinjiang Agricultural University. Taking the nine-year-old dense planting of walnut trees (variety "Xinwen 185") as the research object
three irrigation levels (W1:375 mm
W2:435 mm
W3:495 mm) and three fertilizer doses (F1:2 250 kg/hm2
F2:4 500 kg/hm2
F3:9 000 kg/hm2) were arranged to study the effects of water-fertilizer coupling on walnut yield
walnut quality
and water and fertilizer utilization efficiency under drip irrigation. Mathematical models of the relationship between water-fertilizer investment and walnut indicators were established through multiple quadratic regression analysis.[Results] The effects of irrigation and fertilizer on the soil NO-3-N in the walnut tree growth periods of hard stone and oil conversion
on the walnut yield
quality
irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE)
and partial factor productivity (PFP) reached significant levels (p<0.05). The interaction effects of irrigation and fertilizer on walnut yield
IWUE
and PFP reached significant levels (p<0.05). Hard stone and oil conversion periods were the key periods of fertilizer demand for walnut trees. The F3 treatment resulted in the accumulation of soil nitrate nitrogen. There was no significant difference in the effects of W2 and W3 treatments on the quality
yield
and PFP of drip irrigation of walnut trees
which were significantly different from those of W1. The effects of fertilizer application on the kernel yield
yield
IWUE
and PFP of walnut trees were significant.[Conclusion] Around Tarim Basin
the suitable ranges of water and fertilizer applications for the whole growth period of walnut trees were
438 to 469 mm (including winter and spring irrigation) and 7 074 to 7 168 kg/hm2
respectively
including 3 144 to 3 186 kg/hm2 urea and 3 930 to 3 982 kg/hm2 monoammonium phosphate.
