| Abstract | To improve the grain yield (GY) and water–nitrogen (N) use efficiency of summer maize, a 2–year field experiment was conducted using micro–sprinkling irrigation water–fertilizer integration. Surface irrigation and N application methods were applied in the control (CK, irrigation at sowing; 300 kg N ha⁻¹). Under water–fertilizer integration, N was applied at five rates (0, 120, 180, 240, and 300 kg N ha⁻¹, N applied at sowing, jointing, and tasseling and ratio of 1:1:1; designated WN₀, WN₁₂₀, WN₁₈₀, WN₂₄₀, and WN₃₀₀, respectively). The leaf area index and dry matter accumulation increased with increasing N application rate, with a slower rate of increase when N application rate ≥180 kg N ha⁻¹. Compared with CK, the GY of WN₃₀₀, WN₂₄₀, WN₁₈₀, and WN₁₂₀ was not significantly different,but WN₁₂₀ significantly decreased by 7.16% and 5.47% than WN₂₄₀ and WN₃₀₀.The evapotranspiration,irrigation amount,and N application rate in WN₁₈₀ were 9.86%–16.40%, 47.11%–52.23%, and 40% lower,respectively,than in CK,while the water use efficiency and N partial factor productivity was 3.38%–15.14% and 32.04%–60.43% higher.Thus,application of 180 kg N ha⁻¹ with water–fertilizer integration can achieve high GY and improve resource–use efficiency. |
