    Available online www.jocpr.com Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research, 2014, 6(7):1124-1129 ISSN : 0975-7384 Research Article CODEN(USA) : JCPRC5 Effects of formulated fertilizer, irrigation and varieties on wheat yield in Shaanxi China Xiaoying Wang1, Yanan Tong1,2*, Pengcheng Gao1, Fen Liu1, Yimin Gao1, Zuoping Zhao1 and Yan Pang1 1College of Resources and Environment, Northwest A&F University, Yangling, Shaanxi, China 2Key Laboratory of Plant Nutrition and Agricultural Environment in Northwest, Ministry of Agriculture, Yangling, Shaanxi, China _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT In order to study the effects of formulated fertilization, irrigation and different varieties on crop yields and farmer’s income, this research used household survey data and demonstration test data of formulated fertilization, which was collected from the project of soil testing and formulated fertilization in Shaanxi province from 2007 to 2011. For analysis, there were a total of 53 counties in the sample. The results show that in Weibei, Guanzhong and Qin-Ba regions, compared with conventional fertilization, formulated fertilization decreased nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates by 31.92%, 12.59% and 10.13% respectively, decreased phosphate (P2O5) fertilizer rates by 20.44%, 2.10% and 26.19% respectively, increased potassium (K2O) fertilizer rates by 105.98%, 193.99% and 382.58% respectively. The yields of wheat improved 330 kg ha-1, 403 kg ha-1 and 738 kg ha-1, the yield increase rates were 7.73%, 6.26% and 19.71%, the average profits increased about 906 yuan ha-1, 689 yuan ha-1 and 1423 yuan ha-1 respectively in the three regions. In addition, the average yields were higher up to 19.07%, 14.96% and 17.76% respectively when irrigation had been used than without, and it was not the most productive varieties that were the most grown in the three regions.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. 2 Here the spatial distribution of soil enzymatic properties in agricultural land was evaluated on a county-wide (567 km )scalein Changwu, Shaanxi Province, China. The spatial variations in activities of five hydrolytic enzymes were examined using geostatistical methods. The relationships between soil enzyme activities and other soil properties were evaluated using both an integrated total enzyme activity index (TEI) and the geometric mean of enzyme activities (GME). At the county scale, soil invertase, phosphatase, and catalase activities were moderately spatially correlated, whereas urease and dehydrogenase activities were weakly spatially correlated. Correlation analysis showed that both TEI and GME were better correlated with selected soil physicochemical properties than single enzyme activities.
