Winter wheat grain yield and its components in the North China Plain: irrigation management, cultivation, and climate

Irrigation has been identified as the main driving factor of groundwater drawdown in the North China Plain (NCP). In order to develop appropriate irrigation strategies for satisfactory yields of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), grain yield (GY), yield components, and water use efficiency (WUE) were stu...

In order to develop appropriate irrigation strategies for satisfactory yields of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), grain yield (GY), yield components, and water use efficiency (WUE) were studied.
