Research on Underground Drip Irrigation and Soil Redistribution - Take Heshan District of Yiyang City as an Example

Abstract

Abstract: The drip flow and the buried depth of drip irrigation zone are not only important parameters of subsurface irrigation design and operation management, but also important factors affecting the migration and redistribution of soil water and fertilizer. Crop growth is closely related to soil water and nitrogen leaching, water and fertilizer transport patterns and redistribution characteristics. It is of great significance to study the migration and redistribution of soil water and fertilizer under subsurface drip irrigation for improving the utilization efficiency of water and fertilizer and improving the system of subsurface drip irrigation. In this paper, the migration mode and redistribution characteristics of water and nitrogen in subsurface drip irrigation were studied and analyzed by means of laboratory soil box experiment, considering the two factors of drip flow and the buried depth of drip irrigation belt. The main research conclusions are as follows: Ⅰ. Different drip flows had effects on soil moisture front, soil moisture content and soil water redistribution. If other conditions remain unchanged, increasing the drip flow can increase the moist body area of soil and increase the moisture content of soil. The distance between vertical and horizontal directions increased with the large drip flow, and the soil water content decreased with the increase of distance. Large drip flow can promote the redistribution of soil water after drip irrigation. Ⅱ. Different drip depth had effects on soil moisture content and soil water redistribution. When the drip depth was 0cm, the surface shape of the wet body was a "horizontal" semi-ellipse after drip irrigation. When the drip depth was 10cm and 20cm, the surface of the wet body was an "upright" semi-ellipse after drip irrigation. The larger the buried depth of the drip can make the distribution of soil moisture more uniform, and the larger the buried depth of the drip can promote the migration of water in the soil. Ⅲ. Different drip discharge had an effect on soil nitrogen redistribution, and large drip discharge promoted soil nitrogen redistribution after drip irrigation. The Nitrate Nitrogen (NO3--N) content in the moist body is lower than that near the edge of the wetting front. The content of Ammonium Nitrogen (NH4+-N) near the edge of the wetting peak is higher than that inside the wetting body. Ⅳ. The redistribution of soil nitrogen was affected by different buried depth of drip head, and the greater buried depth of drip head could promote the redistribution of soil nitrogen. In terms of vertical and horizontal migration of ammonium nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen, on the day after drip irrigation, the cumulative effect of Nitrate Nitrogen (NO3--N) buried at a depth of 20cm was more significant near the wetting front edge at a larger vertical downward distance, and the cumulative effect of Nitrate Nitrogen (NO3--N) buried at a depth of 20cm was more significant inside the wetting body at a larger vertical downward distance. At the same time, the drip buried depth of 20cm can spread the cumulative effect inside the wet body and near the edge of the wet front to a longer horizontal distance.
