Abstract:Farmers provided excessive nitrogen fertilizer to obtain high cotton yield in Xinjiang, Northwest China. Although drip irrigation could save water resources and improve nitrogen use efficiency, it is not known if leaching is occurring or not and whether leaching will harm the water environment under different nitrogen application. The purpose of our study was to estimate the effect of different nitrogen (N) application on the N leaching loss in drip irrigated cotton fields in South Xinjiang. A field experiment… Show more
