Effects of Different Planting Years and Planting Methods on Soil Characteristics and Wheat Yield in Tidal Flat Cultivation Reclamation Area
To study the effects of different planting years and planting methods on the yield and component factors of shoal wheat,and clarify the dynamic changes of soil salinity,pH and moisture during the growth of shoal wheat,the wheat planting experiment with planting years and planting methods were carried out from November 2021 to June 2022 in the cultivation reclamation area of tidal flats.Two planting years including wheat planting in the first year(1Y)and the second year(2Y),and two planting methods including 25 cm continuous row spacing conventional tillage(N)and 30 cm+15 cm wide and narrow row tillage(T)were set up in the experiment.The results showed that(1)the dynamic changes of soil salinity of 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm under 1Y-T,1Y-N,2Y-T and 2Y-N treatments were relatively stable from December to February of the next year.The salinity reached the lowest value in late March,and then the salinity returned with the increase of temperature.At the same time,the salinity of 0-40 cm soil layer under T treatment was higher than that under N treatment,and the salinity of 0-40 cm soil layer under 1Y treatment was higher than that under 2Y treatment.(2)Soil pH values of 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm soil layer under each treatment had similar seasonal variation characteristics during wheat planting.At the same time,the pH value of 0-20 cm soil layer was lower than that in 20-40 cm soil layer,and the moisture content of 0-20 cm soil layer was higher than that in 20-40 cm soil layer.(3)Overall,the wheat yield under 2Y treatment was increased by 2.68%compared with that under 1Y treatment.The plot yield and theoretical yield under T treatment were decreased by 6.71%and 8.03%compared with that under N treatment(P<0.05).From the analysis of yield components,the panicle number of wheat under 2Y treatment was increased by 5.29%(P<0.05)compared with that under 1Y treatment,and the panicle number of wheat under T treatment was decreased by 9.67%(P<0.05)compared with that under N treatment.However,there were no significant differences in the number of grains per ear and 1000-grain weight under different planting years or planting methods.The wheat yield will increase with the decrease of soil salinity in the reclamation area,and the main reason for the increase of wheat yield is the increase of the number of ears in tidal flat cultivation reclamation area.
