Plastic Film Mulching Improved Maize Yield, Water Use Efficiency, and N Use Efficiency under Dryland Farming System in Northeast China
This 2-year field study analyzed plastic film mulching (PFM) effects on nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and soil N pools under rainfed dryland conditions. Compared to no-mulching (NM, control), maize yields under PFM were increased by 36.3% (2515.7 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) and 23.9% (1656.1 kg...
