The soil and water resources restrict the development of Corps agriculture: soil-water balance restricts the improvement of land use efficiency; soil salinization threatens Corps agricultural production; the quality of cultivated land declines, which affects the sustainable development of agriculture; groundwater resources are overexploited and the ecological water use is seriously insufficient. Corps agricultural water-saving irrigation technology has experienced from flood irrigation to ditch irrigation, and then from drip irrigation to drip three times under the film.

Since the “11th Five-Year Plan”, the crops applied by drip irrigation have been increased from cotton to processed tomatoes, corn, wheat, sugar beet, sunflower, etc., and the geographical scope of application has been gradually expanded. From Xinjiang, the crop has been gradually promoted to the northwest, north and northeast regions. By the end of 2013 By the end of 2013, the national water-saving irrigation project area reached 407 million mu and the drip irrigation area was 57.85 million mu, accounting for 14% of the area of ​​water-saving irrigation projects, of which the net area of ​​drip irrigation increased by 9.45 million mu in 2013; Xinjiang (including the Corps) Mu, currently about 59% of the area with drip irrigation technology with water (Corps reached more than 95%).

The integration of water and fertilizer in Xinjiang has greatly improved the utilization rate of water resources, promoted the income increase of farmers by increasing agricultural output, promoted the regional water resources balance, improved the ecological environment, promoted the Corps’ agricultural modernization and led the development of water-saving equipment industry and agriculture Social division of labor.

The future application of water and fertilizer integration technology, hoping to water and fertilizer integration technology and the three lines (longitude, dimension, elevation) combined with the crop (variety, cultivation mode, group regulation) combined with the root distribution characteristics of the combination of light Salt area structure and adapt to the improvement of the soil, and drainage technology, combined with the upgrading of equipment, agricultural agronomic integration and fertilizer synergies coupled with more in-depth exploration to achieve with the development of economic and social benefits are consistent optimize.
