Abstract:By keeping the ratios of N,P (P2O5) and K(K2O) at6%,5% and 19% respectively,we investigated the impact of four fertilizations:high fertilization (F1),medium fertilization (F2),low fertilization (F3) and zero fertilization (F4),on the yield and water-fertilizer use efficiency of tomato grown in a solar greenhouse under drip fertigation.The results showed that the yield and water use efficiency (WUE) increased parabolically with the amount of fertilization before peaking at 67 776.93 kg/hm2 and 49.27 kg/m3 respectively when the N application was 290.2 kg/hm2,indicating that an appropriate fertilization increased the yield and WUE.The partial productivity (PFP) of fertilization decreases exponentially with the amount of fertilizer in the range of 41.4~539.9 kg/hm2 of N application.Dry-matter accumulation under different fertilizations was ranked in F2 > F 1 > F3 > F4,and the increase of dry matter with time can be described by the logistic function.The accumulating rate of dry matters peaked earlier in F2 than in other treatments,and lasted 1 ~ 8 days longer than in other treatments.Approximately,1.97%~6.96% of the dry matter was translocated to fruit.The results showed that more than 90% of all dry matter was due to the photosynthesis at the late stage.It is hence essential to increase water and fertilizer supply during the fruit-growing stage.
