Abstract: 【Objective】 The objective of this study is to research on the effect of coupling between water and fertilizer on maize yield, fermentation quality, nutritional value and the water use efficiency. 【Method】 Urea (0, 75, 225, 300 kg•hm-2) and water (0, 2 299.95, 2 069.96, 1 839.96 m3•hm-2) were all four levels. By measuring the yield and indicators of silage quality of maize, the effective utilization way of coupling between fertilizer and water were studied. Yields, lactic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, ammonia nitrogen, buffering capacity, dry matter, crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, crude ash, ether extract, and water-soluble carbohydrates were determined. 【Result】 The results showed that the yield when the irrigation water was at 2 069.96 m3•hm-2, fertilizer urea at 225 kg•hm-2 was the highest, as much as 87 229.87 kg•hm-2. The content of lactic acid of fertilizer urea at 225 kg•hm-2 treatments (W0N2, W1N2, W2N2, W3N2) was higher than others (P<0.05), and 11.96%, 15.03%, 12.58%, 15.64% higher than CK, respectively. Silage consumed water soluble carbohydrates, reduced detergent fiber of raw, and improved digestibility, the neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber in treatment of irrigation water at 2 069.96 m3•hm-2 and fertilizer urea at 225 kg•hm-2 was the lowest, and DM was 53.61% and 28.39%, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The water utilization efficiency was increasing with irrigation water volume. Application of urea can facilitate water use efficiency, especially in arid and semiarid region. So it is an effective way to increase yield and water use efficiency of maize. The yield and silage quality of the treatment of irrigation water 2 069.96 m3•hm-2 and fertilizer urea 225 kg•hm-2 were the best.
