摘要:

准确估算气候变化背景下小麦的产量潜力对于评估粮食生产能力至关重要。然而,基于不完全优化的田间试验校验的作物机理模型往往低估了小麦的产量潜力。本研究基于CERES-Wheat模型和管理良好的十年长期定位试验数据,定量评估了华北平原小麦的产量潜力,并明确了影响产量潜力及缩小产量差的关键限制因素。结果表明,近十年华北平原小麦的平均产量潜力为10.8 t/ha-1,冬前积温(592)和生育季太阳辐射(3036 MJ/m2)不足是限制产量潜力的关键气候因素。在不考虑CO2浓度升高的情况下,预计2040-2059年间,华北平原小麦的产量潜力在RCP4.5和RCP8.5情景下将分别下降1.8%和5.1%。然而,CO2的施肥效应足以抵消气候变暖和太阳辐射下降的负面影响,最终使2040-2059年间小麦的产量潜力在RCP4.5和RCP8.5情景下分别提高7.5%和9.8%。此外,10月5日播种以及每平米400株的播种密度能最佳匹配华北平原的光热资源,最大化小麦的产量潜力;优化灌溉制度(3次,270 mm)和根层土壤氮素管理措施可以有效缩小产量差。本研究强调了基于气候-作物-土壤协同的综合管理策略对提高华北平原小麦产量潜力和缩小产量差的重要性。

Abstract:

Accurately estimating the wheat yield potential under climate changes is essential for assessing food production capacity.  However, studies based on crop modeling and imperfect management experiment data frequently underestimate the wheat yield potential.  In this study, we evaluated wheat yield potential based on the CERES-Wheat model and a well-managed 10-year (2008–2017) field study in the North China Plain (NCP), and further identified the critical climate and management yield-limiting factors for improving wheat yield potential and closing the wheat yield gap.  Our results revealed that wheat yield potential averaged 10.8 t ha–1 in the recent decade.  The low growing degree days (GDD) in the pre-winter growing season (592°C d) and solar radiation in the whole growth season (3,036 MJ m–2) are the most critical climatic factors limiting wheat yield potential in the current production system.  Nonetheless, wheat yield potential in the NCP is projected to decline during 2040–2059 by 1.8 and 5.1% under the representative concentration pathway (RCP) 4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, respectively, without considering the elevated CO2 concentration.  However, the positive influence of CO2 fertilization will be sufficient to offset these negative impacts from climatic warming and solar dimming, ultimately leading to an enhancement in wheat yield potential during 2040–2059 by 7.5 and 9.8% compared to the baseline under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, respectively.  To improve the wheat yield potential, we recommend selecting an appropriate planting date (5 October) and planting density (400 plants m–2) that align with light and temperature conditions during the wheat growing season.  In addition, optimizing the timing and rate of water application (three times, 270 mm) and fertilizer use (based on in-season root zone nitrogen management) is crucial for closing the wheat yield gap.  This study underscores the importance of adopting multiple management practices that account for complex climate–crop–soil interconnections to enhance the wheat yield based on a long-term field experiment under the changing climate.
