[Objective]This paper discussed the influences of surface drip irrigation on the growth,yield and quality of several new species of Guitang,in order to provide references for the promotion of new species and high-yield cultivation.[Method]One species is planted in each region,and there were two controls dripping technology or no-dripping technology in each region.[Results]The average yield of dripping-processed land was 115.91 t/hm2,which was 19.73 t/hm2higher than the control.The maximum output was GT31,followed by GT34.The output of all Guitang new species was higher than the control ROC22.The average sucrose of dripped sugarcane was 14.68%,which was 0.19%less than the control of 14.83%.The dripping technology was economically beneficial,rising by 15.2% compared with the control.The highestdripping efficiencywasGT31,while the lowestone was ROC22.The increasing ratios of drip irrigation efficiency of the tested new Guitang species were higher than ROC22. [Conclusions]Under the drip irrigation condition, the sugarcane yield was extremely higher than the control of non-dripping irrigation, and the economic efficiency was significant.However,the sugar in the sugarcane declined slightly.The sensitivity of several new Guitang species to water was higher than the control ROC22.

S ugarcane is an essential economic pillar industry in Guangxi,and above 90%sugarcane grows in the arid hillside field. The drought from autumn to spring makes it difficult for the seedlings to grow,which exerts considerable influences on the sugarcane yield.Therefore,it is of great significance to adopt advanced sugarcane cultivation tech nologies[1-2].Drip irrigation is based on the water absorbing capacity of plants, and reduced the wastes of water to the maximum extent.This increases the moisture use efficiency,and is one of the most advanced water conservation irrigation technology in the world[3-4]. Drip irrigation is a new efficient water irrigation technology based on the increasingly perfection of drip irrigation technology[5-6].Compared with ground drip irrigation,underground drip irrigation can reduce the water evaporation in the soil,elongate the use of dripping tube,and cut down labor and management costs.

In the end of 1990s,N etafim from Israel introduced drip irrigation technology into China,and demonstrated such technology at first on the cotton and grapes in Xinjiang,and then on the sugarcane in Guangxi from the year of 2003[8].In recent years,researchers like Xu Lin et al.[10]have carried out more studies on applying drip irrigation technology on the sugar-cane.Chen Guifen et al.[11]have studied different drip fertilizing technologies.Li Yijie et al.[2]have studied the different irrigation amounts.At present, studies on the application ofdrip technology mainly focus on the influences of fertilizing technology,irrigation method and irrigation amount on the sugarcane,and there are few studies about the high yield of various sugarcane species.We tested the six new species of Guitang,and New Taitang No.22 as the control.This paper discussed the influences of underground drip on the growth,output and quality of new species in order to provide references for the promotion of new species.

Materials and Methods

Test materials

The experiment is carried out in GuangxiSugarcane Institute.The tested speciesareGuitangNo.29 (GT29),Guitang No.30(GT30),Guitang No.31 (GT31),Guitang No.32 (GT33),Guitang No.33(GT33),Guitang No.34(GT34),New Taitang No. 22(ROC22,the control).We need one PVC-U tube of 75 mm,one tube of 16 mm in diameter,0.8 mm of thickness, 40 mm of drip hole distance and 1-2 L/h of flow.The fertilizer used 25% compound fertilizer in which the contentofnitrogen,phosphorus and potassium was 13%,5%,and 7%.

Experiment methods

Based on the comparison method,each species was planted in each region.The line length was 7 m and the line spacing was 1.2 m.Eight lines were considered as one region, and was about 67.2 m2.Each species includes irrigation and non-irrigation. The sugarcane seedlings were cut into two parts and sowed from March 22 to 23 in 2012.The base fertilizer was 750 kg/hm2.75 kg/hm2of pesticides were sowed after sowing.Then soils were covered over the plants,and drips were laid before spraying pesticides and covering film.Films were peeled in the mid-April,and 750 kg/hm2compound fertilizer was applied on May 29.Besides,1500 kg/hm2compound fertilizer was applied on July 18.Then, we collected ripe sugarcane on January 24,2013.

Drip irrigation

420 m3/hm2of water was used for drip irrigation was conducted for once all over the experimental area five days after sowing.From May to October,drip irrigation was conducted once each month,and the control was not irrigated.Firstly,420 m3/hm2of water was used for 10 hours on May 8. Then,390 m3/hm2of water was used for 14 hours on June 5.Thirdly,150 m3/hm2of water was used for 12 hours on July 15.Fourthly,420 m3/hm2of water was used for 12 hours on August 18.Fifthly,450 m3/hm2of water was used for 12 hours on September 22.Sixthly,405 m3/hm2of water was used for 10 hours on October 20.In total,2 235 m3/hm2of water was used for drip irrigation.

Investigation projects

We recorded the seedling rate and tiller rate in the early stage of the sugarcane growth,the strain growth velocity in the middle period,and the content of sugar cane in the final stage.We learned the yield.

Data statistics analysis

Excel 2003 was applied for data treatment,and DPS7.55 for variance analysis.

Results and Analyses

Influences of different treatments on the seedling and tiller of sugarcanes

According to Table 1,the average seedling rate of the drip irrigated one and the control was similar,mainly because the moisture management of both treatments was the same during the germination period.No matter it is drip irrigation process or the control, the seedling rates ofallGuitang species were less than that of the control ROC22.Since May,water was only used in drip irrigation treatment, rather than being used in the control. Right now the sugarcane was in the tiller period,so the drip irrigation exerted great influences on the tiller of sugarcane (Table 1).According to the three times of tiller from the early tiller period (May 15)to the end of tiller (June 5),there are three tiller periods, as the tiller rate of irrigation processes, and the litter rate of all species were higher than the control.The highest tiller rate was 158.0% in average, which was 39.9%higher than the control that was 118.1%.The tiller rate of two treatments of each species was GT33＞GT30＞GT31＞GT29＞GT34＞ROC22＞GT32.The tiller rate of each irrigated species reached the highest value on May 25,while only GT31, GT32,GT33 and ROC22 of the control group amounted to the highest value on the same day.And the other three species amounted to the highest value until June 5,which suggested that the tiller began early and ended early.

Influences of different treatments on the strain height of sugarcane

As is shown in Table 2,in the ear-ly period of sugarcane(strain height at the end of June),the drip irrigation of all species was obviously higher than the control,and the average strain height was 4.5%higher than the control.The variance was extremely significant.The growth rate of strain height of GT32,GT29,GT34 was much higher than the control ROC22. In the middle period,the growth of irrigated strain heightwasextremely higher than the control.The growth rate of GT29 was the largest one,far more than ROC22,and the values of other species were less than ROC22. The growth of strain height from October to December was the same as the value in the early and middle periods. The GT30 strain growth rate was the largest one,while the control ROC22 was the smallest one.As for the total growth of strain height from August to December,the irrigate treatment was significantly higher than the control, and the growth rate was GT29＞GT30＞GT 34＞GT32＞GT22＞GT31＞GT33,which suggested that the irrigation promoted the sugarcane growth.

Influences of different treatments on the sugarcane yield and sugarcane stalk

Table 3 suggested that there were differences in the sugarcane yield and the sugarcane stalk yield.In terms of the stalk length,the irrigated treatment generally was 8.5%higher than the control,and the growth rate of GT29, GT34,and GT32 was higher than the control ROC22,while the value of GT31 and GT32 was less than ROC22.With regard to the stalk diameter,the irrigated treatment rose by 1.6%than the control,with significant difference.The largest rising rate was GT33.All Guitang species were higher than ROC22,except GT29.The effective stalk of irrigated plants rose by 8.4%,significantly higher than the control.The highest growth rate was GT31,andthelowestvaluewas ROC22.As for the sugarcane stalk yield,the irrigated treatmentwas 20.5%higher than the control,and the highest growth rate of the irrigated species was GT31,while the lowest one was ROC22.The sequence was GT31＞GT33＞GT32＞GT34＞GT29＞GT30＞ROC22,which indicated that the growth rate of all irrigated Guitang species was higher than ROC22.

Influences of different treatments on the sucrose in the sugarcane

Samples were delivered to the Center for Inspection and Testing for Quality and Safety of Sugarcane,Ministry of Agriculture (Nanning)in themiddle ten days of December and January.Three species were collected for both the irrigated group and the control.According to Table 4,the average sucrose in the sugarcane was 14.67% in December,which was 0.29%less than the control.The average sucrose in the irrigated sugarcane in January was 14.70%,which was 0.09%less than the control group.The average sucrose of the irrigated group of two tests was 14.68%,0.19%less than the control,which suggested that the average sugarcane sucrose was in decline.

Table 5 Comparison of the economic benefit Yuan/hm2

The economic benefit of sugarcanes

(1)The price of raw materials:the originalsugarcane price was 475 yuan/t.

The drip irrigation input:the dripping tube cost 0.85 yuan per meter, and if the line distance was 1.2 m, there would be 8 400 m/hm2(10 000 m2/1.2 m≈8 400 m),and so the total cost would amount to 7 140.0 yuan/hm2.The PVC-U tube cost 25 yuan for each (4 m),525 yuan/hm2in total.The joint was bought at 0.8 yuan each,and one joint was needed for every 100 meter,67 yuan/hm2.The installation expense was about 60 yuan one day for a temporary worker,and there were three workers in each square meter.The water for irrigation cost 0.22 yuan per square meter,and about 2 235 m3/hm2water was used. Because the drip irrigation can prolong the age of roots,the cost of raw materials for four years were 9 880 yuan/hm2.

(2)Economic benefits:the economic benefit is positively proportional to the yield of sugarcane stalk.The average income of irrigated species was 52 589 yuan/hm2,which was 15.2% higher than the control.The increase rate of drip irrigation was GT31＞GT33＞GT32＞GT34＞GT29=GT30＞ROC22.That was to say that the economic growth of irrigated new species of Guitang was over ROC22.

Conclusions and Discussions

(1)Besides of the inherent reasons of species,the soil moisture, aeration and soil temperature of the external surroundings would influence the tiller of sugarcane.Temperature, sunshine,nutrients and moisture are the primary factors affecting the stalk length and diameter.As for the sugarcane in the arid land,moisture is the leading factors thatlimitthe growth of sugarcane[14].Because of the direct supply of water to the crops, drip irrigation technology accelerates the assimilation of moisture and fertilizer to the plants[7-15].Experiment proves that drip irrigation promotes the early development of tiller,and thus increases the yield.The average stalk yield of irrigated sugarcane was 20.5% higher than the control,while the largest increase rate was GT31,and the smallest one was the ROC22,as GT31＞GT33＞GT32＞GT34＞GT29＞GT30＞ROC22.The growth rate of all irrigated Guitang species was higher than that of ROC22,which also suggests that ROC22 is a species that is drought-resistant and has a stable yield.

(2)The sucrose in the sugarcane was lower than the control 0.19%,and showed a declining trend,which may because that the drip irrigation significantly increases the fertilizer rate,and causes decline in the sucrose,which is basically consistent with the studies by Chen Guifen et al.[11]and Wei Changbin et al.[14]Studies by Li Yijie et al.[2]and Wang Weizan[12]have different results from our research.Whether the sucrose in the irrigated sugarcane increases or declines is subjected to different species and surroundings. Therefore,we need further studies regarding this aspect.

(3)The economic benefit of irrigated treatment was significant,and the control rose by 15.2%.The highest growth rate was GT31,while the lowest one was ROC22,GT31＞GT33＞GT32＞GT34＞GT29=GT30＞ROC222, which was positively proportional to the sugarcane stalk yield.All the increase rate of new species was higher than ROC22.
