• Effects of straw mulching on soil temperature, evaporation and yield of winter wheat: field experiments on the North China Plain (2007, background): “Previous studies in the same region showed that straw mulch on summermaize not only improvedWUE but also grain production (Zhang et al., 1994, 2005b).”
• Deficit irrigation for reducing agricultural water use. (2006, background): “…has been verified in numerous experiments summarized in wheat by Musick et al. (1994), by many recent DI experiments in China, primarily with maize and wheat (Li et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2005), and by Oweis and co-workers in the Middle East working with grain legumes (Oweis et al., 2004, 2005).”
• Improving water use in crop production (2008, background): “Recently, Zhang et al. (2005) have reported that there have been 50% yield and water use efficiency increases in the North China Plain in winter wheat and maize over the last 20 years associated with mulching and improved irrigation scheduling.”
• Application of AquaCrop model in deficit irrigation management of Winter wheat in arid region (2011, background): “Deficit irrigation helps at stabilizing crop yields and obtaining maximum WP rather than maximum yields (Zhang et al., 2005).”
• Potassium Fertilization on Maize under Different Production Practices in the North China Plain (2011, background): “Th is would correspond, for example, to an average of about 482 mm yr–1 at the Luancheng AgroEco Experimental Station of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, located in the central part of the plain, for the years between 1982 and 2002 (Zhang et al., 2005).”
