Mulching and soil water content(SWC) have a significant impact on soil erosion,and this study investigated the effect of straw mulching on water infiltration and soil loss under different initial SWC treatments in a rainfall simulation experiment conducted in northern China.Increasing initial SWC can decrease soil infiltration and increase soil loss.During an 80 mm rainfall event(80 mm·h–1for 60 min),8%,12% and 16% initial SWC treatments decreased cumulative infiltration by8.7%,42.5% and 58.1%,and increased total sediment yield by 44,146 and 315 g,respectively,compared to 4%initial SWC.However,in all the straw mulching treatments,there was no significant difference in stable infiltration rate between the different initial SWC treatments.For all initial SWC treatments,straw mulching of30% or more significantly enhanced water infiltration by over 31% and reduced soil loss by over 49%,compared to the unmulched treatment.Taking into consideration the performance of no-till planters,a maize straw mulching rate of 30% to 60%(1400–3100 kg·hm–2) is recommended for the conservation of water and soil in northern China.
Mulching and soil water content (SWC) have a significant impact on soil erosion, and this study investigated the effect of straw mulching on water infiltration and soil loss under different initial SWC treatments in a rainfall simulation experiment conducted in northern China. Increasing initial SWC can decrease soil infiltration and increase soil loss. Fluid 80 mm · h-1 for 60 min, 8%, 12% and 16% initial SWC calculated decreased cumulative infiltration by 8.7%, 42.5% and 58.1% and increased total sediment yield by 44,146 and 315 g, respectively, compared to 4% initial SWC. Still, in all the straw mulching treatments, there was no significant difference in stable infiltration rate between the different initial SWC treatments. For all initial SWC treatments , straw mulching of 30% or more significantly enhanced water infiltration by over 31% and reduced soil loss by over 49%, compared to the unmulched treatment .aking into consideration the performance of no-till planters, a ma ize straw mulching rate of 30% to 60% (1400-3100 kg · hm-2) is recommended for the conservation of water and soil in northern China.
