以西瓜为试材,针对压砂保墒问题,选择压砂时期和灌溉定额作为研究因素,采用对比试验方法研究了压砂保墒效果及其种植西瓜的生产潜力。结果表明:压砂覆盖能够有效保持土壤水分,上年雨季前压砂与雨季后压砂相比较,播种初期前者处理土壤质量含水率可达10.8%以上,而后者仅为8.9%;补水条件下前者比后者处理西瓜纵径大2.8cm,西瓜横径大3.1cm,未补水条件下前者比后者处理西瓜纵径大3.9cm,西瓜横径大2.7cm;补水条件下,前者处理西瓜产量为12 301.0kg·hm~(-2),后者处理西瓜产量为7 549.1kg·hm~(-2),未补水条件下,前者处理西瓜产量为6 723.3kg·hm~(~(-2)),后者处理西瓜产量为3 829.5kg·hm~(-2),可见,压砂保水能够明显提高西瓜生产潜力。
Taking watermelon as test material,aiming at the problem of gravel-mulched soil moisture conservation,selecting the gravel-mulched time and irrigation norm as study factors,the comparison experimental method was adopted and the gravel-mulched soil moisture conservation and potential productivity of watermelon was studied.The results indicated that it was efficacious for holding soil moisture by gravel-mulched,comparing mulched gravel before rainy season last year and mulched gravel behind rainy season last year,the former treatment soil moisture content was more than 10.8%,but,the later treatment just 8.9%;the vertical diamete increased 2.8cm,transverse diamete increased 3.1cm,under supplementary irrigation condition,the former treatment compared with the latter treatment,and when no supplementary irrigation condition,the vertical diamete increased 3.9cm,transverse diamete increased 2.7cm;the yield of the former treatment watermelon was 12 301.0kg·hm~(-2),but the latter treatment was 7 549.1kg·hm~(-2),under supplementary irrigation condition,the yield of the former treatment watermelon was 6 723.3kg·hm~(-2),but the latter treatment was 3 829.5kg·hm~(-2),under no supplementary irrigation condition,thus there was obvious effect for improved watermelon yield by holded soil moisture in gravel-mulched.
