[Coupling effect of water and fertilizers on spring wheat yield in semi-arid area of western Liaoning Province].
With optimum saturation design, a field experiment was conducted to study the coupling effect of water and fertilizers on spring wheat yield in semiarid area of western Liaoning Province. Regression model shows that water was the most important factor affecting spring wheat yield. Under natural raining and when the upper and the lower limit of irrigation was 360 mm and 45 mm, respectively, N was the most sensitive factor, water was the second, and P was the third. The effects of N, P and water on yield were statistically significant, and met the law of diminishing return. The most economic matching pattern of N, P and water was N 186 kg.hm-2, P 63 kg.hm-2, and water 300 mm. Properly increasing phosphorus fertilizer at the lack of water could strengthen the drought-resistance of spring wheat.
