Abstract

Conventional flooding irrigation fertilization results in low utilization of resources,high risk of environmental pollution,which has become a serious threat to the sustainable development of greenhouse vegetable production.The object of this study is to evaluate whether drip fertigation can improve water and nitrogen use efficiency and reduce nitrate pollution risk.A long-term experiment within 9 growing seasons was conducted in Shouguang,Shandong Province.Tomato yield,water and nitrogen use efficiency,economic benefits and soil nitrate content were analysed.Compared with conventional flooding irrigation fertilization,fertilizer N and water inputs were reduced by 78% and 46%under drip fertigation system,while nitrogen partial productivity and irrigation water use efficiency were increased 5-fold and 2-fold,respectively.Tomato yield and economic benefits were increased by 6% and 22% under drip fertilization system,while the inter-annual variation of yield decreased significantly.The nitrate residues in the soil(0-90cm)was up to 819kg/hm2 for conventional production system,while it was reduced by 50% under drip fertigation system.In conclusion,compared to conventional flooding irrigation fertilization system,drip fertigation system is more efficient and stable with reduced resources input and environmental cost.
