In order to solve the practical problems of large water demand and shortage of water resources in traditional wheat/maize intercropping, a planting method of changing stubble retention method is proposed in this paper. This method was used to study the effects of three stubble retention methods of traditional wheat straw incineration, straw return, and straw stubble on grain yield, water use efficiency (WUE), and economic benefits of wheat/maize intercropping. The results showed that, compared with the grain yield of burning and returning, the single cropping of wheat increased by 7.2% and 5.1%, the intercropping of wheat increased by 6.2% and 5.1%, the single cropping of corn increased by 4.7% and 2.5%, and the intercropping of corn increased by 7.2% and 3.3%, respectively; compared with the burned and returned WUE, wheat monoculture increased by 20.4% and 16.2%, respectively, wheat intercropping increased by 17.9% and 14.6%, respectively, corn monoculture increased by 16.7% and 10.9%, respectively, and corn intercropping increased by 11.8% and 17.0%, respectively. In terms of the average value of monoculture wheat, monoculture corn, and wheat/corn, the net benefits of incineration, turning, and stubble treatment are 10946, 11471, and 13454 yuan • hm−2, respectively. Considering the grain yield, water use efficiency, and net income, the standing stubble planting mode is the best planting mode of wheat/maize in this area.

“…Jafari et al (2021) observed the crop coefficient in orange trees in the range of 0.65 to 0.91 under semi-arid conditions with reference evapotranspiration (ET0) ranging from 2.55 to 9.0 mm day-1. Cheng et al (2021) reported nonsignificant fruit yields between deficit and alternate partial root zone drying systems and significant with full irrigation. WUE is generally greater under a partial root zone strategy than a full irrigation system in loam, silt loam, and sandy soils.…”

Water use efficiency (WUE) is a dependent factor in orchard ecosystems. Enhancing WUE in any agroecosystem is the national priority for achieving the goal of more fruit per drop of applied water. Farmers' practice of full irrigation in the basin by flooding reduces the scope of better WUE. Innovative approaches like deficit irrigation certainly improve WUE in mango, across climates. Statistical analysis and histographic diagrams showed maximum frequency distribution of pan evaporation of 103% in class intervals of 3.14 to 5.97 mm day -1 followed by 0.3 to 3.13 mm day -1 (99%) under subtropical conditions. The histographic distribution of reference evapotranspiration (ET0) indicated the highest frequency distribution of 96% in 4.98 to 6.32 mm day-1 and 83% in 0.93 to 2.27 mm day-1. Statistical histographic distribution of mango (cv. Dashehari) yield under subtropical climatic conditions indicated 85.4 to 108.04 kg fruits tree -1 at a 9% frequency level. The highest WUE of 20.43 to 23.96 kg fruits m -3 of water applied was obtained under a 6% frequency distribution. The deficit irrigation strategy was found to be the most appropriate for optimum yields of mango under subtropical conditions.

“…APRI is a water-saving irrigation technique that cuts some water from the required irrigation water for the crops (this reduction of water is crop-dependent (Ahmadi et al, 2010)), and it generally has no or minimal yield losses and subsequently increases IWUE (S Hashem et al, 2018). According to Cheng et al, (2021), the percentage changes in yield under APRI were not noticeably different from full irrigation for tomatoes and potatoes, while the corresponding IWUE was signi cantly higher. Mahmoudi et al, (2020) stated that subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) offered better growth and yield data than surface drip irrigation.…”

“…stated that compared to conventional irrigation, APRI improved IWUE.The rise in IWUE values under the de cit irrigation practices could be attributed to the partial stomatal closure that occurs under PRD treatments and which results in a decrease in transpiration rate without detectable changes in plant water status and, consequently an increase in irrigation water use e ciency(Hashem et al, 2019). According toCheng et al, (2021), the changes in yield under APRI were not dramatically different from FI for tomatoes and potatoes, whereas the corresponding IWUE was signi cantly higher. The APRI Stated that under de cit irrigation, the IWUE of the drip system is higher than that of surface irrigation systems.…”

The growing population in conjunction with water scarcity forces us to search for alternative sources of irrigation water and integrate it with irrigation strategies for agricultural expansion to meet sustainable development objectives. For this purpose, a field experiment was conducted over three years (2017, 2018, and 2019) to investigate the effect of water quality (reclaimed water (RW) and freshwater (CW)), irrigation techniques (subsurface drip irrigation (SDI and Furrow irrigation (FUI)), irrigation methods (Full irrigation (FI) and alternate partial root-zone irrigation (APRI (70% ETc)), and their interactions on the fresh fruit yield (FY), irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE), and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of tomatoes. As well as evaluate the effects of these experimental factors on soil properties regard to electrical conductivity (EC), pH, and organic matter (OM) of Soil. The experiment was undertaken over three growing spring seasons in China. There were eight treatments in the experiment. For all three years, the yield, IWUE, and NUE values of all treatments under RW were high compared with the corresponding values under CW. The same occurred under SDI compared with FUI. Analysis of variances showed that there was no significant effect (P > 0.05) of water quality, irrigation technique, and irrigation methods on the soil EC, PH, and OM over the three years. In addition, there was no significant effect (P> 0.05) on the interaction between the experimental factors over the three years. In conclusion, the application of RW under SDI can result in saving CW and increasing productivity without any negative effect on the investigated soil properties, as well as, when RW-SDI is used in conjunction with APRI, it can result in increasing IWUE.
