In order to study the effects of different planting densities on soil erosion of sloping cropland under the conventional tillage
different planting densities and growth periods of winter wheat were used to simulate the different crop coverages. The artificial rainfall simulation method was used to measure coverage
surface runoff and soil erosion of five different density treatments (0
1 500 000
2 500 000
3 500 000 and 4 500 000 plants/hm2) in different growth periods
and to analyze the effect of crop coverage on soil erosion. The result showed that: (1) The difference of crop planting density on sloping cropland lead to the difference of coverage
which had a significant impact on soil erosion. Crop coverage generally increased with the increasing of planting density
however
if the density was too high
due to poor growth conditions
the coverage became smaller. The coverage was the largest at 75 000 plants/hm2
but the coverage of 90 000 plants/hm2
which was the highest planting density
was not the largest. (2) There was a good exponential function relationship between erosion and runoff and crop cover
and the function was Y = 44.37e-0.09x (p < 0.01)
Y = 1089.19e-0.02x (p < 0.01)
respectively. That is
with the increasing of crop coverage
runoff and erosion decreased. (3) There was a significant exponential function relationship between soil erosion and surface runoff (R2 = 0.96). These conclusions were of great significance for analyzing soil erosion in conventional tillage cropland
quantifying the factors of tillage measures
accurately predicting soil erosion
and guiding cropland water and soil conservation.
