Abstract
The application of nitrogen (N) improves the winter wheat yield. Excessive N application affects winter wheat yields, leading to low net incomes and negative environmental impacts, therefore, optimizing N application is essential. In this study, the effects of N rates on crop growth yield, net income (NI), water use efficiency (WUE), and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in the irrigated districts of the eastern loess plateau, China, were investigated using seven N application rates (N0, N90, N180, N210, N240, N270, and N300 kg ha−1) during the 2016–2017 and 2017–2018 seasons. N application significantly increased the total water consumption at 0–200 cm during the growth period, the aboveground dry matter at maturity, the grain nitrogen accumulation, yield, NI, and WUE. However, N exceeding 240 kg ha−1 did not favor dry matter and nitrogen accumulation or translocation from the anthesis stage to the maturity stage, thus leading to reduced yield, NI, and WUE. The transpiration rate and stomatal conductance N240 was highest 21–28 day after anthesis, at 187–276 kg ha−1, which can achieve a high yield and profitability with relatively low environmental costs.
