Effects of Different Types of Mulch Film on Soil Moisture and Heat and Rape Yield
In order to study the effects of different types of plastic film on soil moisture heat and rape growth under the condition of planting on the film side,3 kinds of film mulching treatments were set up including ordinary plastic white mulch film,black mulch film and liquid mulch film,with no film mulching as control(CK).The field experiments were carried out to comprehensively analyze the effects of mulch film on soil moisture heat,rape growth and yield.The results showed that,compared with CK,3 film mulching treatments increased the soil moisture by 0.49%~2.29%and 7.60%~10.77%in the seedling stage and the bud stage,respectively,and the water retention effects of black plastic film and white plastic film were significant at the bud stage.Compared with CK,the dry matter of rape under film treatments increased by 6.36%~38.36%and 7.52%~88.44%in the seedling stage and the bud stage,respectively,and the increase of black plastic film was the largest,followed by white plastic film,and the difference in bud stage was significant.The 3 film treatments could promote the agronomic characters of rape,and the effect of black plastic film was the best,the plant height,the length of the main inflorescence,the number of primary effective branches,the primary effective pods and the grains per pod of black plastic film increase by 11.53%,18.34%,50.10%,46.46%and 87.50%compared with CK,respectively.The yield of rape under black plastic film treatment was 2 926.50 kg·hm-2,which was significantly higher than those of white plastic film,liquid plastic film and CK by 34.67%,81.60%and 87.55%,respectively.To sum up,black plastic film had a good effect of water conservation and yield increase under the film side planting,which could be used as a water-saving and drought-resistant,green,high-yield and efficient cultivation measure for rape in southwest dryland.Above results provided theoretical and technical support for further optimization and popularization of plastic film mulching rape.
