Increased photosynthesis and grain yields in maize grown with less irrigation water combined with density adjustment in semiarid regions

In order to design a water-saving and high-yield maize planting model suitable for semiarid areas, we conducted trials by combining supplementary irrigation with different planting densities. Three planting densities (L: 52,500, M: 75,000, and H: 97,500 plants ha–1) and four supplementary irrigation...
