From: Effect of Different Mulches under Rainfall Concentration System on Corn Production in the Semi-arid Areas of the Loess Plateau

Figure 3

Yield increases obtained under plastic-covered ridge and furrow rainfall concentration (RC) planting combined with mulching from 2007 to 2010 during the corn growth period compared with the conventional flat (CF) treatment.

Note: RCSS: 0.08 mm thick plastic film; RCSD: corn straw; RCSB: 8% biodegradable film; RCSL: liquid film; RCSN: bare furrow; CF: conventional flat (control). Different lowercase letters indicate significant differences among treatments. Error bars represent standard deviations.
