“…Regarding the study aim of evaluating the water relations for wheat planting dates and planting methods, the study concludes that, among planting methods, bed planting methods saved amounts of irrigation water by 29.5% (1046.07 m 3 •ha −1 , average irrigation applied water in both seasons) in comparison with flat planting method and consumed less water other than planting methods. ese findings are in agreement with the results obtained by Aboelsoud et al [58] who illustrated that the highest Aw values were obtained with the traditional flat planting method and the lowest Aw values were achieved with wheat planted with raised furrows, by Li et al [53] who identified the advantage of bed technique from higher savings of irrigation water with less local machinery and labor costs, and by Fahong et al [59] who showed that using furrow irrigation rather than flood irrigation could reduce irrigation by up to 30% and enhance water use efficiency.…”

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the uppermost cereal grain crop considered as a major stable food for the Egyptian people. Field experiments were conducted during two consecutive winter seasons of 2017-18 and 2018-19 to study the effect of two planting dates (PD) (20th of November and 20th of December) under four different planting methods (PM) (bed broadcast, flat broadcast, drill at 15 cm, and drill at 25 cm apart rows) on the productivity and water relations of wheat genotype (Egypt 1). The study is intended to assess the water relations for wheat planting dates and planting methods and determine the role of late planting date and planting methods on wheat productivity. Results showed that the values of grain yields and some attributed yields were highly significantly affected by planting dates and methods in the two growing seasons. Planting wheat at the optimal date (20th November) was better than sowing at the late date (20th December) for all values obtained from the studied parameters in both seasons of the study. The bed broadcast planting method gave the highest mean values for all studied parameters except the plant height which was recorded with drilling seeds at a 15 cm planting method in the two growing seasons. The highest values of water applied were recorded with the first date under the borders planting method (PD1M2), while the lowest of Aw recorded was from beds planting method with the second date. The highest mean values for WP were recorded with the bed broadcast planting method.

“…The raised bed (RB) planting method has the potential to improve irrigation water distribution, reduce water use, and increase crop yield and water productivity compared to traditional planting methods [19,20]. Li., et al [21] found that using the RB method increased wheat productivity and solar radiation use efficiency, and they interpreted this as a consequence of the vertical distribution of photosynthetically-active radiation.…”

Soil salinity and climate change have a negative impact on global food production and security, especially in arid regions with limited water resources. Despite the importance of planting methods, irrigation, and soil amendments in improving crop yield, their combined impact on saline soil properties and cereal crop yield is unknown. Therefore, the current study investigated the combined effect of soil amendments (i.e., compost, C and zeolite, Z) and planting methods such as raised bed (M1) and conventional (M2), and different fractions of leaching requirements from irrigation water, such as 5% (L1) and 10% (L2), on the soil physio-chemical properties and wheat and maize productivity in an arid region. The combined application of C + Z, L2, and M1 decreased soil salinity (EC) and sodicity (ESP) after wheat production by 37.4 and 28.0%, respectively, and significantly decreased by these factors by 41.0 and 43.0% after a maize growing season. Accordingly, wheat and maize yield increased by 16.0% and 35.0%, respectively under such a combination of treatments, when compared to crops grown on unamended soil, irrigated with lower leaching fraction and planted using conventional methods. This demonstrates the significance of using a combination of organic and inorganic amendments, appropriate leaching requirements and the raised bed planting method as an environmentally friendly approach to reclaiming saline soils and improving cereal crop production, which is required for global food security.

“…These results are also in line with study of Maleha et al (2020) that 29.5% water was saved when wheat was planted on raised beds than broadcast and drill planting techniques. Aboelsoud et al (2020) also reported that more water is required to irrigated flat sown field than ridge/raised bed sown field. Similarly, it was also reported that WUE of furrow irrigation technique is 30% higher than flood irrigation (Fahong et al, 2004).…”

C limate change is obvious and alarming to the future crop production. The assessment of its impact showed significant decline in yield of cereals (Ullah et al., 2019a) importantly wheat crop (Hussain et al., 2020) in arid and semi-arid regions. Many scientists proposed different adaptation strategies to combat climate change adverse effects. The replacement of conventional techniques in crop production to innovative was identified as resource efficient practices (Ullah et al., 2019b). These identified practices responded positively in studying the future impacts of climate in different scenarios. The role of water in adaptation is worth mentioning in addition to adapting crop production techniques (Ullah et al., 2017). How-Abstract | Water scarcity across the globe greatly emphasizing agriculture sector to adapt such practices that have more water use efficiency in the context of seasonal variability and climate change. Hence it is crucial to explore useful techniques in crop production that utilize less water without compromising yield, sacrificing income of the farming community and evidencing sustainability in production systems. Thus, a two years field study (during 2017-18 and 2018-19) was conducted at research area of Agronomic Research Station Khanewal, Punjab, Pakistan to compare the existing traditional winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) planting techniques (broadcast and drill) with the water efficient planting techniques (ridge and bed planting) to evaluate their water use efficiency and their economic feasibility. Results of this study revealed that sowing of wheat on ridges and beds gave higher productive tillers (384 ha -1 and 401 ha -1 , respectively), grains per spike (47 and 47, respectively), 1000-grains weight (43 and 44 g, respectively) and ultimately higher grain yield (4492 kg ha -1 and 4761 kg ha -1 , respectively) than broadcast and drill planting techniques (conventional techniques). Likewise, it was figured out that minimum water was required in wheat planted at ridge (47266 m 3 ha -1 ) and bed (40772 m 3 ha -1 ) techniques than with broadcast (65347 m 3 ha -1 ) and drill sown (57498 m 3 ha -1 ) wheat. Similarly, higher water use efficiency was recorded in ridge (0.10 kg/m 3 ) and bed (0.13 kg/m 3 ) sown wheat followed by the drill (0.08 kg/m 3 ) and broadcast (0.05 kg/m 3 ) methods. Moreover cost benefit ratio of ridge (1:1.15) and bed (1:1.25) planting techniques was higher than drill (1:0.93) and broadcast (1:0.44) techniques. In conclusion, it is recommended that wheat may be planted on ridges and raised bed to have more yield, high water use efficiency and sound financial return to farming community.
