Pepó, Péter2021-06-282021-06-282010-11-03Acta Agraria Debreceniensis, No. 38 (2010) , 133-1352416-1640https://hdl.handle.net/2437/316390We have been studied the effects of crop-rotation, fertilization and irrigation on the yields of maize in different cropyears characterized by different water supply (2007 year=dry; 2008 year=optimum) on chernozem soil. Our scientific results proved that in water stress cropyear (2007) the maximum yields of maize were 4316 kg ha -1 (monoculture), 7706 kg ha -1 (biculture), 7998 kg ha -1 (triculture) in non irrigated circumstances and 8586 kg ha -1 , 10 970 kg ha -1 , 10 679 kg ha -1 in irrigated treatment, respectively. In dry cropyear (2007) the yield-surpluses of irrigation were 4270 kg ha -1 (mono), 3264 kg ha -1 (bi), 2681 kg ha -1 (tri), respectively. In optimum water supply cropyear (2008) the maximum yields of maize were 13 729-13 787 (mono), 14 137-14 152 kg ha -1 (bi), 13 987-14 180 kg ha -1 (tri) so there was no crop-rotation effect. In water stress cropyear (2007) fertilization caused yield depression in non irrigated treatment (control=2685 kg ha -1 ; N240+PK=2487 kg ha -1 ). Our scientific results proved that the effects of abiotic stress could be strongly reduced by using the optimum crop models in maize production. We obtained 8,6-11,0 t ha -1 maximum yields of maize in water stress cropyear and 13,7-14,2 t ha -1 in optimum cropyear on chernozem soil with using appropriate agrotechnical elements.application/pdfmaizeabiotic stresscropyearyieldfolyóiratcikkOpen Accesshttps://doi.org/10.34101/actaagrar/38/2773Acta Agraria Debreceniensis38Acta agrar.
