Abstract

Abstract: 【Objective】In the experiments, the mechanism of maize-peanut intercropping in increase of land productivity and water use efficiency was studied through comparing yield, land equivalent ratio and water use efficiency, and the optimal maize-peanut intercropping systems in semi-arid region of western Liaoning province were proposed.【Method】Field experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2016 in Fuxin Scientific Observation Research Stations of Agricultural Environment and Cultivated Land Conservation. Four treatments were designed, 2 rows maize and 4 rows peanut (2M:4P), 4 rows maize and 4 rows peanut (4M:4P), sole maize (S-M) and sole peanut (S-P). Yield, land equivalent ratio, water distribution and water use equivalent ratio were calculated to analyze the positive effects on productivity and water use efficiency. 【Result】 Yield of maize and peanut in intercropping system decreased compared with the sole system because of resource competition. But the land equivalent ratio (LER) in 2M:4P and 4M:4P were, respectively, 1.10-1.24 and 1.12-1.23, indicating the advantage of intercropping. The partial land equivalent ratio (LER_p) of peanut in intercropping was 0.41-0.57, suggesting that peanut can decrease the disadvantage of intercropping with cereal crops. Soil water content in peanut strip was higher than that of maize strip but lower than the sole peanut. This finding showed that intercropped maize absorbed water from peanut strip. Water use equivalent ratio (WER) was 1.12-1.23 in 2M:4P intercropping system and 1.16-1.17 in 4M:4P intercropping system. Water use efficiency in intercropping system was increased.【Conclusion】The results indicated that maize-peanut intercropping can increase land and use efficiency in the semi-arid region of western Liaoning province. 2M:4P intercropping system performed better in 2015 with less rain. But in 2016 with more rain, 4M:4P intercropping system had higher land and water use efficiency. And the yield of 4M:4P intercropping system remained stable between two years. So in the semi-arid region of western Liaoning province, 4M:4P intercropping system can decrease climate risk. The results of this study contribute to optimize the field configuration.
