Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect The optimized water allocation scheme could increase cotton lint yield in the Tarim Irrigation District by up to 9959 tons (+3.3 %) compared with uniform allocation.
- Association Soil salt content dominated irrigation water allocation decisions in the cotton model.
- Recommendation When surface water is limited, water distribution should prioritize high-yield fields (non-severe salinization) in cotton production.
- Intervention effect Rational fallowing can enhance total cotton yield in the irrigation district.
- Intervention effect Rational fallowing can reduce input costs in cotton production.
- Recommendation Severely saline cotton fields are prime candidates for fallowing policies.
