Effects of Ventilation Irrigation on Yield and Fruit Quality of Tomato
Abstract：Non-ventilation irrigation used as control group, two different kinds of ventilation volume （50% of soil porosity as a reference standard, ventilation coefficients were set 0.8, 1.2） and with three different soil moisture （60%- 70%, 70%- 80%, 80%- 90% of field capacity） were set. The growth of tomato plants under ventilation irrigation treatment was significantly promoted. In addition to T2 treatment （ventilation coefficient is 1.2, 60 %-70% of field capacity）, yields of the remaining ventilation irrigation were higher （20M） than non-ventilation irrigation. The content of Vitamin c, the content of solvable solid content and sugar-acid ratio was higher under T3 treatment （ventilation coefficient is 0.8, 70%-80% of field capacity）. It is concluded that ventilation irrigation of T3 treatment could increase tomato yield and improve fruit quality significantly.
