Abstract:
Effects of drip irrigation in Dali on tobacco growth were studied by using field comparative experiment. The results showed that dry matter accumulation gradually increased with the development of tobacco growth, and main phase was fast growing and round top period. Nitrate reductase activity reached peak in fast growing period, and significantly declined after round top period. In the range of relatively appropriate drip irrigation rate, lower drip irrigation rate was of benefit to enhancement of water use efficiency. In conclusion, drip irrigation rate of 40-50 m
3/667m
2 was appropriate to Dali tobacco-planted area.
