Climate, soil and management factors drive the quantitative relationships between soil fertility and spring maize water productivity in northern China by Jiao Shi, Minggang Xu, Xinhua He, Huaiping Zhou, Jianhua Li

“…The potential QRs determined by boundary functions were reached up to 6.2, 5.26 and 6.12 kg m−3 in NW, at dry years and under NPK, respectively. To improve spring maize WP through enhanced soil fertility, the NW region, dry years, and NPK were parallelly optimal, while such WP increases were increased with N rate in NE and NW or planting pattern change in NC, each of them could efficiently benefit for using scarce water resources in dryland northern China and other dryland areas.…”
