摘要： Cotton, as one of important economic crops, is widely planted in the saline-alkaline soil of southern Xinjiang, China. Moreover, in order to control the saline-alkaline content for seed germination and seedlings survive of cotton, farmers always adopt salt leaching during winter and spring seasons. However, excessive amount of salt leaching might result in the waste of water resources and unsuitable irrigation seasons might further increase soil salinization. In this study, a field experiment was conducted in the saline-alkaline soil in 2020 and 2021 to determine the effects of leaching amount and period on water-salinity dynamics and cotton yield. Five leaching amounts (0.0 (W0), 75.0 (W1), 150.0 (W2), 225.0 (W3), and 300.0 (W4) mm) and three leaching periods (seedling stage (P1), seedling and squaring stages (P2), and seedling, squaring, flowering, and boll setting stages (P3)) were used. In addition, a control treatment (CK) with a leaching amount of 300.0 mm in spring was performed. The soil water-salt dynamics, cotton growth, seed cotton yield, water productivity (WP), and irrigation water productivity (WPI) were analyzed. Results showed that leaching significantly decreased soil electrical conductivity (EC), and W3P2 treatment reduced EC by 11.79% in the 0-100 cm soil depth compared with CK. Plant height, stem diameter, leaf area index, and yield under W3 and W4 treatments were greater than those under W1 and W2 treatments. Compared with W3P1 and W3P3 treatments, seed cotton yield under W3P2 treatment significantly enhanced and reached 6621 kg/hm2 in 2020 and 5340 kg/hm2 in 2021. Meanwhile, WP and WPI under W3P2 treatment were significantly higher than those under other leaching treatments. In conclusion, the treatment of 225.0 mm leaching amount and seedling and squaring stages-based leaching period was beneficial for the salt control, efficient water utilization, and yield improvement of cotton in southern Xinjiang, China.
