Silvopastoral systems integrate trees, pastures, and animals aiming for sustainable livestock production. The APSIM model has been used to simulate silvopastoral systems but the estimates of light transmission through the tree canopies, belowground water competition, and their effects on pasture production, have not been well adjusted. Thus, we improved the simulation of pasture growth within a silvopastoral system by integrating the APSIM-Tropical Pasture and APSIM-Slurps models and calibrated the coupled models to simulate light transmission through the trees along with water competition among species. Observed data was obtained from a silvopastoral system established in São Carlos, SP, Brazil, during two experimental periods that went from Dec-2014 until May-2016 and from Apr-2018 until May-2019. The calibration of the combination of the models was considered overall accurate. The APSIM-Slurp model simulated well (R² = 0.64, NSE = 0.60) the radiation interception by trees. The APSIM-Tropical Pasture model showed a good performance to simulate pasture (R² = 0.90 and NSE = 0.72), leaf (R² = 0.82 and NSE = 0.44), and stem (R² = 0.82 NSE = 0.75) biomass and an acceptable performance for pasture LAI (R² = 0.76 and NSE = 0.58). With that, a multifactorial simulation was performed to test the sensitivity of pasture production as a function of levels of nitrogen, tree leaf area index (LAI), tree root water extraction coefficient, post grazing residual biomass, and season of the year, using 39 years of weather data from the same location of the field experiment as input. The sensitivity analysis showed that the combination of the models was sensitive to variations of the factors with the greatest sensitivity occurring for the tree LAI. The assembling of APSIM-Tropical Pasture and APSIM-Slurp models well simulated pasture production in a silvopastoral system with different managements, indicating the potential of its use as a decision-making tool for silvopastoral systems´ design.

林牧系统集成了树木、牧草和动物,旨在实现可持续畜牧业生产。APSIM 模型已被用于模拟林牧系统,但对通过树冠的透光率、地下水竞争及其对牧草产量的影响的估计尚未进行很好的调整。因此,我们通过整合 APSIM-Tropical Pasture 和 APSIM-Slurps 模型,改进了对林牧系统内牧草生长的模拟,并校准了耦合模型,以模拟树木的透光率以及物种间的水分竞争。观测数据来自巴西南太平洋圣卡洛斯市建立的一个林牧系统,该系统的两个实验期分别为 2014 年 12 月至 2016 年 5 月和 2018 年 4 月至 2019 年 5 月。模型组合的校准被认为总体准确。APSIM-Slurp模型很好地模拟了树木对辐射的拦截(R² = 0.64,NSE = 0.60)。APSIM 热带牧场模型在模拟牧场(R² = 0.90,NSE = 0.72)、叶片(R² = 0.82,NSE = 0.44)和茎干(R² = 0.82,NSE = 0.75)生物量方面表现良好,在模拟牧场 LAI 方面表现尚可(R² = 0.76,NSE = 0.58)。因此,以田间试验同一地点 39 年的气象数据为输入,进行了多因素模拟,以测试牧草产量对氮水平、树木叶面积指数(LAI)、树木根部汲水系数、放牧后剩余生物量和季节的敏感性。灵敏度分析表明,模型组合对各种因素的变化都很敏感,其中树木 LAI 的灵敏度最高。APSIM-Tropical Pasture 和 APSIM-Slurp 模型的组合很好地模拟了不同管理下的林牧系统的牧草产量,这表明该模型有可能成为林牧系统设计的决策工具。

Aims

The current study aims to investigate the optimal substitution rate of inorganic fertilizer with organic fertilization practices to reduce N2O emission without yield penalty in rainfed maize and to explore its denitrifier regulating mechanisms. Methods A field study started in 2016 was continued in 2020 and 2021 by using five organic nitrogen (N) fertilizer substitution treatments, including 0 % (T1), 50.0 % (T2), 37.5 % (T3), 25.0 % (T4), 12.5 % (T5), and no fertilizer control (T6). In addition to these organic fertilizer substitution rates, the maize's remaining N and phosphorus requirements were fulfilled by applying chemical fertilizer up to 200 kg N ha–1 and 150 kg P2O5 ha–1. Results The application of organic fertilizer in treatments T2, T3, and T4 reduces the total N2O emission by 38.19 %, 24.48 %, and 22.22 %, respectively, compared with T1. Different substitution rates did not significantly affect biomass but significantly (P<0.05) affected grain yield. Treatments T1, T3, and T5 had the highest grain yield, with no significant difference. The total N and NO3−N contents were lower, but the soil moisture was higher in treatment T3 compared to T1. Based on the bioinformatics analysis, key OTUs of nifH N fixing bacteria, nirK, and nirS denitrifiers are subordinate to the generic levels of Azospirillum, Cronobacter, Devosia, and Sulfuricaulis, respectively. Conclusions In the current study, a substitution rate of 37.5 % organic fertilizer sustains maize yield by neutralizing soil pH, improving soil moisture, and nitrate-N, and abundance of nifH N fixing bacteria and nirK denitrifiers to reduce N2O emission in rainfed maize fields in Northern China.

目前的研究旨在调查有机肥替代无机肥的最佳比例,以减少雨养玉米的氮氧化物排放而不影响产量,并探索其脱氮调节机制。2016 年开始的一项田间研究在 2020 年和 2021 年继续进行,采用了五种有机氮肥替代处理,包括 0 %(T1)、50.0 %(T2)、37.5 %(T3)、25.0 %(T4)、12.5 %(T5)和不施肥对照(T6)。除了这些有机肥替代率外,玉米对氮和磷的剩余需求量还通过施用化肥来满足,化肥施用量为每公顷 200 千克氮和每公顷 150 千克磷。与 T1 相比,在 T2、T3 和 T4 处理中施用有机肥分别减少了 38.19 %、24.48 % 和 22.22 % 的氮氧化物排放总量。不同的替代率对生物量没有明显影响,但对谷物产量有明显影响(<0.05)。处理 T1、T3 和 T5 的谷物产量最高,差异不显著。与 T1 相比,T3 处理的总氮和氮氧化物含量较低,但土壤湿度较高。根据生物信息学分析,固氮菌、 、 和反硝化细菌的关键 OTU 分别从属于 、 、 和 的通用水平。在本研究中,37.5%的有机肥替代率可通过中和土壤pH值、改善土壤水分、硝酸盐-N、固氮菌和反硝化细菌的丰度来维持华北雨养玉米田的玉米产量,从而减少氮氧化物的排放。

Soil moisture content (SMC) acquisition is vital for crop stress diagnosis and precision irrigation. However, UAV remote sensing-based SMC monitoring usually suffers from low accuracy and spatio-temporal applicability. To address these issues, this study integrated crop physiological spectral response features into an ensemble learning model. A two-year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted. First, fractional-order differentiation (FOD) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) were used to enhance the responsiveness of summer maize canopy spectra to SMC and leaf physiological parameters (LPPs), including leaf area index (LAI), leaf chlorophyll content (LCC) and leaf water content (LWC). Afterwards, variable importance in projection (VIP) was adopted to characterize the spectral response properties of each parameter. Finally, a stacked ensemble learning model (SELM) based on Bayesian optimization (BO) was used to construct a SMC monitoring model, and the feasibility of fusing LPP spectral response features for SMC monitoring was evaluated. The results indicated that: (1) Changes in SMC had significant effect on LCC and LAI of summer maize, which in T4 (with field water-holding capacity of 80 %-95 %) were 14.07 % and 34.41 % higher than that in T1 (40 %-50 %), respectively. (2) Spectral transformation could significantly enhance the correlation between SMC and LPPs with canopy spectra (the average increase of R reached 0.23). (3) Consideration of the crop physiology spectral response could improve the SMC monitoring accuracy, the LCC-FOD-BO-SELM had excellent monitoring performance (R²= 0.78; RMSE = 0.019). The monitoring model fusing LPPs spectral response features had the highest accuracy (R²= 0.81; RMSE = 0.016). (4) BO could significantly reduce the overfitting problem of the monitoring model, with the maximum difference between the R2 of the training and test set after BO being only 0.01), thus improving the model’s generalizability. This new approach to SMC monitoring using UAV hyperspectral data provide scientific support for precision agriculture and irrigation.

获取土壤水分含量(SMC)对于作物胁迫诊断和精准灌溉至关重要。然而,基于无人机遥感技术的 SMC 监测通常存在精度低、时空适用性差等问题。为了解决这些问题,本研究将作物生理光谱响应特征整合到一个集合学习模型中。研究人员进行了为期两年(2022-2023 年)的田间试验。首先,使用分数阶差(FOD)和连续小波变换(CWT)来增强夏玉米冠层光谱对 SMC 和叶片生理参数(LPPs)的响应性,包括叶面积指数(LAI)、叶片叶绿素含量(LCC)和叶片含水量(LWC)。然后,采用投影重要度变量(VIP)来描述各参数的光谱响应特性。最后,利用基于贝叶斯优化(BO)的堆叠集合学习模型(SELM)构建了 SMC 监测模型,并评估了融合 LPP 光谱响应特征进行 SMC 监测的可行性。结果表明(1) SMC 的变化对夏玉米的 LCC 和 LAI 有显著影响,T4(田间持水量为 80 %-95 %)比 T1(40 %-50 %)分别高出 14.07 % 和 34.41 %。(2) 光谱转换可显著提高 SMC 和 LPP 与冠层光谱的相关性(R 的平均增幅达到 0.23)。(3) 考虑作物生理光谱响应可提高 SMC 监测精度,LCC-FOD-BO-SELM 具有优异的监测性能(R²= 0.78;RMSE=0.019)。融合 LPPs 频谱响应特征的监测模型精度最高(R²= 0.81;RMSE= 0.016)。(4)BO 能显著减少监测模型的过拟合问题,BO 后训练集和测试集的 R 最大差值仅为 0.01),从而提高了模型的普适性。这种利用无人机高光谱数据进行 SMC 监测的新方法为精准农业和灌溉提供了科学支持。

Reducing tillage and herbicide use intensity while limiting weed-related wheat yield loss 减少耕作和除草剂使用强度,同时限制与杂草有关的小麦产量损失

Integrated weed management (IWM) promotes the combination of non-chemical techniques to achieve sustainable weed control while reducing the reliance on herbicides. However, IWM strategies reducing both herbicide and tillage intensity remain unsatisfactory, leading to weed-induced yield loss. In this study, five different IWM strategies were implemented for three years (2020–2022), aiming at reducing herbicide application across four tillage intensities while limiting weed-induced yield loss. These strategies were annual moldboard ploughing without herbicides (PL0H), annual moldboard ploughing with reduced herbicide use (PLHred), occasional moldboard ploughing with reduced herbicide use (PLredHred), shallow tillage without herbicides (ST0H) and no-tillage with reduced herbicide use (NTHred). Over the three years, averaged soil tillage intensity rating (STIR) and herbicide treatment frequency index (HFTI) ranged from 6 to 87 and from 0 to 1.6, respectively, and showed an inverse relationship. Reducing herbicides led to more mechanical weeding and reducing soil tillage led to more herbicide use. The effects of IWM strategies and years since implementation, on total weed and crop biomass, estimated weed and crop volume, weed density, weed species richness and grain yield were analysed in winter wheat. No differences in weed biomass, volume, or species richness were observed between IWM strategies over the years. Weed density increased only in PL0H between 2020 and 2022. Wheat grain yield varied by years but not among IWM strategies over time. Estimated weed-related yield loss was moderate in 2020. The feasibility and performances of such systems must be assessed over a long-term period to ensure their sustainability.

综合杂草管理(IWM)提倡结合使用非化学技术,以实现可持续的杂草控制,同时减少对除草剂的依赖。然而,减少除草剂和耕作强度的综合除草管理策略仍不尽如人意,导致杂草引起的产量损失。本研究在三年内(2020-2022 年)实施了五种不同的综合水稻管理策略,旨在减少四种耕作强度下的除草剂施用量,同时限制杂草引起的产量损失。这五种策略分别是不使用除草剂的全年模纹犁耕(PL0H)、减少除草剂使用量的全年模纹犁耕(PLHred)、减少除草剂使用量的不定期模纹犁耕(PLredHred)、不使用除草剂的浅耕(ST0H)和减少除草剂使用量的免耕(NTHred)。在这三年中,平均土壤耕作强度等级(STIR)和除草剂处理频率指数(HFTI)的范围分别为 6 至 87 和 0 至 1.6,并呈现出反比关系。减少除草剂会导致更多的机械除草,而减少土壤耕作会导致更多的除草剂使用。在冬小麦中,分析了综合水稻管理策略和实施年限对杂草和作物总生物量、杂草和作物估计体积、杂草密度、杂草物种丰富度和谷物产量的影响。在不同年份,综合水管理策略之间在杂草生物量、体积或物种丰富度方面没有发现差异。在 2020 年和 2022 年之间,只有 PL0H 的杂草密度有所增加。不同年份的小麦谷物产量各不相同,但不同时期的 IWM 策略之间并无差异。估计 2020 年与杂草有关的产量损失为中等。必须对此类系统的可行性和性能进行长期评估,以确保其可持续性。

Irrigation has played a pivotal role in Chinese wheat production and is becoming increasingly crucial in adapting to the changing climate. However, the benefits of water-saving wheat production in the long-term period and its response to climate change have received limited attention. In this study, a 6-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the grain yield and water use with three treatments such as Irrigation three times (I3), Irrigation two times (I2), and disposable pre-sowing irrigation (I0), and their sensitivity to weather conditions. The average yield over six years for the I2 treatment is 8.3 Mg ha−1, similar to I3 treatment while using 10.2 % less irrigation water and improving 8.0 % water use efficiency. In contrast, the grain yield in I0 treatment is 28.4 % lower than I3 treatment while consuming 36.9 % less irrigation water. Furthermore, 90.2 % of the yield decrease in I0 treatment results from the lower ear number. Water stress from jointing to flowering accounts for 58.8 % of ear number decrease. Although interannual yield variation is similar among the three treatments, the source of the variation is very different. Kernel weight explains the yield variation by 92.3 % in I3 treatment and 66.1 % in I2 treatment, while ear number accounts for 60.7 % of the variation in I0 treatment. Minimum temperature for kernel weight in both I3 and I2 treatments and rainfall for ear number in I0 treatment is the most important weather factor, respectively. In summary, this study provides valuable insights into the delicate balance between water conservation and food security while adapting to varying weather conditions.

灌溉在中国小麦生产中发挥着举足轻重的作用,在适应气候变化方面也日益重要。然而,节水小麦生产的长期效益及其对气候变化的响应受到的关注有限。本研究进行了为期 6 年的田间试验,研究了灌溉 3 次(I3)、灌溉 2 次(I2)和播前一次性灌溉(I0)等三种处理的粮食产量和用水量及其对天气条件的敏感性。I2 处理六年的平均产量为 8.3 兆克公顷,与 I3 处理相似,但灌溉用水量减少了 10.2%,用水效率提高了 8.0%。相比之下,I0 处理的谷物产量比 I3 处理低 28.4%,但灌溉用水量却减少了 36.9%。此外,I0 处理中 90.2% 的减产是由于穗数较少造成的。从接穗到开花期的水分胁迫占穗数减少的 58.8%。虽然三种处理的年际产量变化相似,但变化来源却大不相同。在 I3 处理和 I2 处理中,仁重分别占产量变化的 92.3%和 66.1%,而在 I0 处理中,穗数占产量变化的 60.7%。在 I3 和 I2 处理中,最低气温对籽粒重量的影响最大;在 I0 处理中,降雨对穗数的影响最大。总之,这项研究为在适应不同天气条件的同时实现节水和粮食安全之间的微妙平衡提供了宝贵的见解。

Although one-time application of a single polymer-coated urea (PCU) can minimize the N loss in paddy field and improve nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in relative to rapid-release urea (RU), it shows a uncertainty in increasing rice yield. There is a proposal that one-time application of PCU mixed with RU can synergistically increase grain yield and NUE. However, few studies focus on the response of roots and rhizospheric bacteria to the nitrogen (N) management. We investigated the issue based on a two-year field experiment using an indica-japonica hybrid variety Yongyou 2640, with four N managements including N omission (0 N), split application of RU (Control), one-time application of 100 % PCU (T1) and one-time application of 70 % PCU + 30 % RU (T2). Results showed that, compared with those in the control, grain yield and total number of spikelets were significantly increased in the T2 treatment while they were comparable in the T1 treatment. Both T1 and T2 remarkably increased N recovery efficiency (REN). During booting, the highest α diversity in rhizospheric bacterial communities was observed in the T2 treatment, followed by T1 and control. Among the root morph-physiological traits, the redundancy analysis (RDA) highlighted the significant contribution of root oxidation activity (ROA) to bacterial communities. Additionally, the linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) identified nine specific genera taxa in the T2 treatment. The abundances of these genera, particularly the Nitrospira, highly correlated with ROA, root H+-ATPase activity, organic acid content, microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen (MBC and MBN) contents, MBC-to-MBN ratio, and the N accumulation during booting (NABT). These traits exhibited notable advantages in the T2 treatment, which contributed significantly to the grain yield, REN, and the total number of spikelets. Interestingly, the nitrate-N content was most significantly increased in T2, followed by T1 and control, rather than the ammonium-N content, which was also highly correlated with the abundance of Nitrospira. In conclusion, a combination of PCU with RU could coordinate root activity and bacterial communities, especially the ROA and Nitrospira, and facilitate the consumption or cycling of nitrate-N while mitigating the risk of its mobility, leading to a remarkably increase in NABT, and consequently, synergistically increase grain yield and NUE.

虽然与速效尿素(RU)相比,一次性施用单一聚合物包膜尿素(PCU)可最大限度地减少水稻田中的氮损失并提高氮利用效率(NUE),但它在提高水稻产量方面显示出不确定性。有一种建议认为,一次性施用 PCU 与 RU 混合可协同提高谷物产量和氮利用效率。然而,很少有研究关注根系和根瘤菌对氮(N)管理的反应。我们以杂交品种 "用友 2640 "为研究对象,进行了为期两年的田间试验,采用了四种氮肥管理方法,包括不施氮(0 氮)、分次施用 RU(对照)、一次性施用 100 % PCU(T1)和一次性施用 70 % PCU + 30 % RU(T2)。结果表明,与对照组相比,T2 处理的谷物产量和总穗数显著增加,而 T1 处理的谷物产量和总穗数与对照组相当。T1 和 T2 均显著提高了氮的回收效率(RE)。在发芽期间,T2 处理中根瘤菌群落的 α 多样性最高,其次是 T1 和对照。在根系形态-生理性状中,冗余分析(RDA)强调了根系氧化活性(ROA)对细菌群落的重要贡献。此外,线性判别分析效应大小(LEfSe)确定了 T2 处理中的九个特定类群。这些类群的丰度,尤其是Ⅳ类群,与 ROA、根部 H-ATP 酶活性、有机酸含量、微生物生物量碳氮(MBC 和 MBN)含量、MBC-MBN 比值以及拔节期氮积累(NABT)高度相关。这些性状在 T2 处理中表现出明显优势,对谷物产量、RE 和总穗数有显著贡献。有趣的是,硝态氮含量在 T2 处理中增加最为显著,其次是 T1 和对照,而非铵态氮含量,后者也与铵态氮丰度高度相关。 总之,将 PCU 与 RU 结合使用可协调根系活动和细菌群落,尤其是 ROA,促进硝态氮的消耗或循环,同时降低硝态氮的流动风险,从而显著提高 NABT,进而协同提高谷物产量和 NUE。

Due to climate change, flooding disasters accompanied by high temperatures (FL-HT) are becoming increasingly common during cotton growing seasons, severely restricting cotton production. However, the characteristics and impacts of cotton FL-HT have rarely been investigated at the regional scale. In this work, based on existing field FL-HT research, we employed daily air temperatures and an agrometeorological indicator called the standardized antecedent precipitation evapotranspiration index to establish a novel approach to characterize FL-HT events during different cotton growth stages in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River (MLRYR) during 1961–2020. Additionally, the influence of accompanying high temperatures (AHT) on the yield-reducing effect of cotton flooding was examined. The results demonstrated that more than half of the cotton FL-HT events were submonthly events, which were efficiently captured by our approach. Over the past six decades, the temporal trends of the cotton FL-HT frequency, the AHT intensity, and the conversion rate (from flooding to FL-HT) were upward at 83.0 % of the sites within the MLRYR, and up to 36 sites exhibited significant (p<0.05) increasing trends. In the most recent decade (the 2010s), the historic highs of the indicators were detected, as demonstrated by the most frequent FL-HT events (780 counts), the most intensive AHT, and the highest conversion rate (20.9 %). During the flowering and boll-filling stage, all the indicators were much greater than those during the other stages; the conversion rate reached 42.2 %, and the FL-HT frequency accounted for 63.0 % of the total FL-HT frequency over the whole growth period. Spatially, 43 % of cotton FL-HT events occurred in the southeastern MLRYR, which was identified as the region most affected by cotton FL-HT. The gravity centers of the cotton FL-HT indicators in different decades exhibited a northward-moving trend. Finally, according to the correlations between flooding intensity and cotton climatic yield, the yield-reducing effect of flooding was much stronger in the years with greater AHT (6 districts had significant correlations) than in the years with less AHT (only 2 districts had significant correlations), verifying the strengthening effect of AHT in cotton in response to flooding. In summary, this work provides new insights into monitoring cotton flooding-HT disasters and reducing flooding risk under climate change.

由于气候变化,棉花生长季节伴随高温的洪涝灾害(FL-HT)越来越常见,严重制约了棉花生产。然而,人们很少在区域尺度上研究棉花 FL-HT 的特征和影响。在这项研究中,我们在已有的田间 FL-HT 研究基础上,采用日气温和农业气象指标--标准化前降水蒸散指数--建立了一种新的方法来描述 1961-2020 年间长江中下游(MLRYR)不同棉花生长阶段的 FL-HT 事件特征。此外,还研究了伴随高温(AHT)对棉花洪涝减产效应的影响。结果表明,半数以上的棉花 FL-HT 事件为次月事件,我们的方法有效地捕捉到了这些事件。在过去的 60 年中,MLRYR 范围内 83.0% 的站点的棉花 FL-HT 频率、AHT 强度和转换率(从淹水到 FL-HT)呈上升趋势,多达 36 个站点呈显著上升趋势(p<0.05)。在最近十年(2010 年代),各项指标均达到历史最高值,表现为 FL-HT 事件最频繁(780 次)、AHT 最密集、转化率最高(20.9%)。在开花和棉铃充实阶段,所有指标都远高于其他阶段;转化率达到 42.2%,FL-HT 频率占整个生长期总 FL-HT 频率的 63.0%。从空间上看,43% 的棉花 FL-HT 事件发生在国土资源部东南部,该地区被认为是受棉花 FL-HT 影响最严重的地区。不同年代棉花FL-HT指标的重心呈现向北移动的趋势。最后,根据洪水强度与棉花气候产量之间的相关性,洪水减产效应在AHT较大的年份(6个地区有显著相关性)远强于AHT较小的年份(仅2个地区有显著相关性),验证了AHT对棉花应对洪水的强化效应。总之,这项工作为监测棉花洪水-高温热量灾害和降低气候变化下的洪水风险提供了新的见解。

Evaluating the impacts of climatic factors and global climate change on the yield and resource use efficiency of winter wheat in China 评估气候因素和全球气候变化对中国冬小麦产量和资源利用效率的影响

Global climate change has profound impacts on agricultural production, and it includes increasing temperature, global dimming, altered precipitation patterns, and elevated CO2 concentration. However, the comprehensive assessment of the impact of different individual climatic factors and their interactions on crop production is relatively limited. Here we assessed the impacts of climate change and different climatic factors on winter wheat yields, interannual yield variability, and resource use efficiency in China from 1980 to 2020, with four wheat crop models (DSSAT-CERES-Wheat, DSSAT-Nwheat, WheatGrow, and APSIM-Wheat). The results showed that climate change was estimated to decrease wheat yields and increase interannual yield variability in the main winter wheat production region of China, especially in the Middle-lower Reaches of the Yangzi River Subregion, where yield reduction and the coefficient of variation increase could be 4.3 % and 30.2 %, respectively. Without considering the CO2 effect, the primary reason for yield decrease and interannual yield variability increase was the interactions of temperature and solar radiation across the main winter wheat production region of China, and wheat yields were estimated to decrease by 9.2 % in the Southwest Subregion while the interannual yield variability increased by 49.5 % in the Middle-lower Reaches of the Yangzi River Subregion. The elevated CO2 concentration was mostly beneficial, manifested as increasing the yield and decreasing interannual yield variability, but it could not fully offset negative impacts of climate change. Moreover, radiation use efficiency increased while heat use efficiency and precipitation use efficiency decreased during the study period. It is imperative to consider the diverse climatic factors and their respective regional impacts when adapting to climate change in China.

全球气候变化对农业生产影响深远,包括气温升高、全球变暗、降水模式改变和二氧化碳浓度升高。然而,全面评估不同气候因素及其相互作用对作物生产的影响却相对有限。在此,我们利用四种小麦作物模型(DSSAT-CERES-Wheat、DSSAT-Nwheat、WheatGrow 和 APSIM-Wheat)评估了 1980 至 2020 年气候变化和不同气候因子对中国冬小麦产量、年际间产量变化和资源利用效率的影响。结果表明,在中国冬小麦主产区,尤其是长江中下游次区域,气候变化估计会导致小麦减产和年际产量变异性增加,减产幅度和变异系数增加幅度分别为 4.3% 和 30.2%。在不考虑二氧化碳效应的情况下,中国冬小麦主产区产量减少和年际变异系数增加的主要原因是温度和太阳辐射的相互作用,估计西南分区的小麦产量减少了 9.2%,而长江中下游分区的年际产量变异系数增加了 49.5%。二氧化碳浓度的升高主要是有益的,表现为产量增加和年际产量变异性降低,但不能完全抵消气候变化的负面影响。此外,研究期间辐射利用效率提高,而热量利用效率和降水利用效率降低。在中国适应气候变化时,必须考虑不同的气候因素及其各自的区域影响。

Do different densities and planting orientations of forage cactus alter agronomic, morphophysiological characteristics, and soil water dynamics in a semiarid region? 不同密度和种植方向的仙人掌饲料会改变半干旱地区的农艺学、形态生理学特征和土壤水动态吗?

Water scarcity is a problem that affects agricultural production around the world. Increasing forage production in the semiarid region is necessary to maintain animal production, and consequently food security. Different agronomic management can improve growth and productivity responses and the water-economic indexes of the crop. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate how the management of density and orientation of forage cactus plantations modify the morphophysiological indices, phenophases, cutting moment, productivity, soil water balance, and water-economic indicators in a semiarid environment. The study was carried out during two harvests (2020–2021 and 2021–2022) in the Brazilian semiarid region. Three experiments were conducted with the ‘Orelha de Elefante Mexicana’ clone under a randomized block design and four replications. Two experiments were composed of five planting densities (100,000, 50,000, 33,000, 25,000, and 20,000 plants ha−1) modified by the spacing between plants (0.10, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40, and 0.50 m with a fixed distance of 1.00 m between rows), the first with East-West (EW) orientation and the second with North-South (NS) orientation. The third experiment presented four planting densities (50,000, 40,000, 33,000, and 28,571 plants ha−1) modified by the distance between rows (1.00, 1.25, 1.50, and 1.75 m with a fixed distance of 0.20 m between plants). Biometric and biomass data were used to determine morphophysiological indices, delimitation of phenophases, ideal cutting moment, and fresh matter (FM) and dry matter (DM) productivity. The soil water balance was carried out using soil moisture readings and the physical-water properties, and the crop's water-economic indices were calculated. In general, morphophysiological indices, phenophases, and cutting moments were affected by densities (p<0.05). DM productivity was 16 % higher in the EW orientation (27.7 Mg ha−1) compared to the NS orientation. The highest planting density (100,000 plants ha−1) in the 1.00 × 0.10 m arrangement presented the highest averages of FM and DM of the cycles, being 401.5 and 32.4 Mg ha−1 orientation EW and 420.8 and 29.5 Mg ha−1 orientation NS. Density of 50,000 plants ha−1 in the 1.00 × 0.20 m arrangement (265.5 and 23.5 Mg ha−1 of FM and DM, respectively). This same behavior occurred for water and economic indices. Therefore, higher densities in forage cactus cultivation (100,000 plants ha−1 in the East-West planting orientation and 50,000 plants ha−1) must be adopted to enhance forage production in semiarid regions.

缺水是影响世界各地农业生产的一个问题。提高半干旱地区的饲料产量是维持动物生产和粮食安全的必要条件。不同的农艺管理可以改善作物的生长和生产力反应以及水经济指标。因此,本研究旨在评估仙人掌饲料种植园的密度和方向管理如何改变半干旱环境中的形态生理指数、物候期、割期、生产力、土壤水分平衡和水经济指标。这项研究是在巴西半干旱地区的两个收获季节(2020-2021 年和 2021-2022 年)进行的。对 "Orelha de Elefante Mexicana "克隆品种进行了三次试验,采用随机区组设计和四次重复。其中两项实验由五种种植密度(100,000、50,000、33,000、25,000 和 20,000 公顷)组成,并对株距进行了调整(0.10、0.20、0.30、0.40 和 0.50 米,行间距固定为 1.00 米),第一项实验采用东西向(EW),第二项实验采用南北向(NS)。第三个实验有四种种植密度(50,000 株、40,000 株、33,000 株和 28,571 株公顷),并根据行间距(1.00 米、1.25 米、1.50 米和 1.75 米,固定株距为 0.20 米)进行了调整。生物测定和生物量数据用于确定形态生理指数、物候期划分、理想割期、鲜物质(FM)和干物质(DM)生产率。利用土壤水分读数和水的物理特性进行了土壤水分平衡,并计算了作物的水分经济指数。一般来说,形态生理指数、物候期和割期受密度的影响(p<0.05)。与 NS 方向相比,EW 方向的 DM 生产率(27.7 兆克/公顷)高出 16%。种植密度最高(100,000 株/公顷)的 1.00 × 0.10 米排列方式下,各周期的 FM 和 DM 平均值最高,EW 方向分别为 401.5 和 32.4 兆克/公顷,NS 方向分别为 420.8 和 29.5 兆克/公顷。在 1.00 × 0.20 米的排列中,密度为 50,000 株/公顷(FM 和 DM 分别为 265.5 和 23.5 毫克/公顷)。水分和经济指标也出现了同样的情况。因此,要提高半干旱地区的饲料产量,必须采用更高的仙人掌饲料种植密度(东西种植方向为 100,000 株/公顷和 50,000 株/公顷)。

The third experiment presented four planting densities (50,000, 40,000, 33,000, and 28,571 plants ha<sup>−1</sup>) modified by the distance between rows (1.00, 1.25, 1.50, and 1.75 m with a fixed distance of 0.20 m between plants). Biometric and biomass data were used to determine morphophysiological indices, delimitation of phenophases, ideal cutting moment, and fresh matter (FM) and dry matter (DM) productivity. The soil water balance was carried out using soil moisture readings and the physical-water properties, and the crop's water-economic indices were calculated. In general, morphophysiological indices, phenophases, and cutting moments were affected by densities (p&lt;0.05). DM productivity was 16 % higher in the EW orientation (27.7 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup>) compared to the NS orientation. The highest planting density (100,000 plants ha<sup>−1</sup>) in the 1.00 × 0.10 m arrangement presented the highest averages of FM and DM of the cycles, being 401.5 and 32.4 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup> orientation EW and 420.8 and 29.5 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup> orientation NS. Density of 50,000 plants ha<sup>−1</sup> in the 1.00 × 0.20 m arrangement (265.5 and 23.5 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup> of FM and DM, respectively). This same behavior occurred for water and economic indices. Therefore, higher densities in forage cactus cultivation (100,000 plants ha<sup>−1</sup> in the East-West planting orientation and 50,000 plants ha<sup>−1</sup>) must be adopted to enhance forage production in semiarid regions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51045,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Agronomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141877934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the face of rapid population growth, scarce water resources, and changing climate conditions, smallholders confront significant challenges in maintaining the productivity of their agroecosystems. Traditional irrigation methods are often expensive and inefficient, limiting the potential for increasing crop yields. To address these issues, this study designed a subsurface irrigation system with ceramic emitters (SICE). SICE adjusted the discharge of emitters through the difference between the working head and soil water potential to provide a continuous water supply and maintain stable soil moisture. A four-year field study and economic analysis under two irrigation systems were conducted for wolfberry cultivation in Northwest China. Results showed that SICE created soil water content at 60 %-90 % field capacity, increased the photosynthetic rate of wolfberry leaves by 67.17 % and reduced malondialdehyde content by 13.61 % compared with surface drip irrigation (SDI). In comparison, SICE was better than SDI with the average increase in yield by 29.46 %, WUE by 9.97 % and IWUE by 31.71 % in four years. Furthermore, applying the SICE system reduced the total cost by 11.13 % while increasing the total return by 20.90 % compared with SDI. Therefore, the SICE system is an effective irrigation method that provides a suitable soil moisture environment for wolfberry cultivation of smallholders in northwest China, resulting in improved yield and reduced costs.

面对快速的人口增长、稀缺的水资源和不断变化的气候条件,小农户在维持其农业生态系统的生产力方面面临着巨大挑战。传统的灌溉方法往往成本高、效率低,限制了提高作物产量的潜力。为解决这些问题,本研究设计了一种带陶瓷喷头的地下灌溉系统(SICE)。SICE 通过工作水头和土壤水势之间的差值来调节喷头的出水量,从而提供持续的供水并保持稳定的土壤水分。针对中国西北地区的枸杞种植,在两种灌溉系统下进行了为期四年的田间研究和经济分析。结果表明,与地面滴灌(SDI)相比,SICE 可使土壤含水量保持在田间持水量的 60 %-90 %,枸杞叶片的光合速率提高了 67.17 %,丙二醛含量降低了 13.61 %。相比之下,SICE 比 SDI 更好,四年内平均增产 29.46 %,WUE 增加 9.97 %,IWUE 增加 31.71 %。此外,与 SDI 相比,采用 SICE 系统降低了 11.13 % 的总成本,同时增加了 20.90 % 的总收益。因此,SICE 系统是一种有效的灌溉方法,可为西北地区小农户的枸杞种植提供适宜的土壤水分环境,从而提高产量并降低成本。
