Abstract

Five kinds of mulching methods have been used to study soil moisture and maize growth on the semi-arid region of western Liaoning province,results showed that soil moisture of water-permeability plastic membrane mulching and straw mulching increased obviously,maize yield of water-permeability plastic membrane mulching was the highest.Growth and yield of maize could be effectively promoted by some mulching methods,of which water-permeability plastic membrane mulching effect was the most significant.
