“…Meanwhile, the WUE of tomato was increased by 0.3-24.2%. Values of WUE were negatively correlated to the irrigation quota, which confirmed the study by Zhang et al (2011). Otherwise, ditch depth was found to have slight effects on WUE, this was probably due to the fact that different ditch depth resulted in different profile distributions of soil moisture.…”

Various indexes should be considered when developing a suitable irrigation and drainage scheme for crops. Our study chosen tomato as plant material and conducted a field experiment under saline soils. Nine treatments distinguished by different irrigation quotas and different drain ditch depths were used for the optimization of irrigation-drainage scheme. A flooding irrigation treatment with no surface drainage was adopted as control. The system of evaluation indexes was established in comprehensive consideration of the electrical conductivity and nutrient of soil, and the water use efficiency, nitrogen use efficiency, quality and marketable yield of tomato. Moreover, the multi-index analysis and projection pursuit (PP) model were used to evaluate the irrigation-drainage schemes according to the observed values of these six evaluation indexes. Results showed that different irrigationdrainage treatments decreased the electrical conductivity in plough layer by 24.6-51.3%, and increased the tomato water use efficiency and nitrogen use efficiency by 0.3-24.2% and 20.3-96.0%, respectively. The tomato marketable yield was increased by 14.4-31.3% with the irrigation-drainage treatments when compared to the control. As analyzed by the PP model, I3D1 (300 m 3 hm -2 of irrigation quota combined with 10 cm of ditch depth) was the treatment that possessed best comprehensive benefits due to the highest projection value of 1.6724 thus was recommended by this study as the optimal irrigation-drainage scheme.

“…Numerous researchers have studied the effect of irrigation amount (Mao et al, 2003) and fertilizer coupled irrigation (Ahmet et al, 2006;Zhang et al, 2011) on cucumber yield and water use efficiency (WUE). Mao et al, (2003) have reported an increased WUE with increased level of irrigation water applied from fruiting to the end of the growth stage.…”

“…If continued for a duration of more than one week, reduced fruit yield and leaf photosynthesis has been observed (Wolff and Langerud, 2006). Zhang et al, (2011) reported that nitrogen fertilizer input had a significant effect on the cucumber yield showing yield increment from 21,240 kg ha -1 to 49,730 kg ha -1 with a nitrogen input from 300 kg ha -1 to 600 kg ha -1 . Tazuke and Sakiyama (1986) have related cucumber growth rate linearly to the increased fruit temperature.…”

“…Previous studies showed alternate partial root–zone drip irrigation (ADI) or fertigation has benefit effect on crop dry mass accumulation, yield, N uptake, and water- and nitrogen- use efficiencies (WUE and NUE) 12,18–20 . However, the advantage of combined application of ADI and fertigation on crop yield, N uptake, WUE and NUE remains unresolved, so the hypothesis of this study was that the combined application of alternate drip irrigation and rational N fertigation can increase N uptake, WUE and NUE of sweet-waxy maize.…”

Alternate partial root–zone drip irrigation (ADI) or fertigation has favorable effect on crop water- and nitrogen- use efficiencies (WUE and NUE). However, the advantage of combined application of ADI and nitrogen fertigation on crop WUE and NUE remains unclear. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of three irrigation methods (CDI conventional drip irrigation (both halves of pot irrigated), ADI (both halves of pot alternatively irrigated) and FDI fixed partial root–zone drip irrigation (fixed half of pot irrigated)) and five nitrogen treatments (F0 no N supplied, F1-F4 0.2, 0.18, 0.16 and 0.14 g N per kg soil via fertigation) on sweet-waxy maize. Compared with CDI, ADI reduced water consumption by 19.9%, but increased water use efficiency based on dry seed yield (WUEs) by 32.3%, and also enhanced nitrogen apparent recovery fraction (Nrf) and nitrogen agronomic efficiency (NAE). F1-F4 augmented dry mass accumulation, dry seed yield and total nitrogen uptake if compared to F0. Moreover, F2-ADI had higher shoot and total dry masses, WUEs, total nitrogen uptake, Nrf and NAE. Thus ADI increased nitrogen uptake, WUE and NUE of sweet-waxy maize with nitrogen fertigation of 0.18 g N per kg soil in this study.
