Study on Effect of Walking-Pattern Water-Saving Sowing Technique

Shanxi province is semi arid territory,and the quantity of water contained in the soil is insufficient for the growth of plants in spring.In order to solve this problem,some new techniques known as walking pattern water saving sowing,and furrow irrigating, was tried out.From 1997 to 1998,a large number of experiments about this item was carried out in Yuanpin and Xiangfen counties in Shanxi province and some important data were obtained by the experiments.By analysing these data, the result showed that certain amount of necerssary water during sowing by the techniques is the key to keep full stand and improve yield.
