Abstract:
      A study was conducted to assess the leaching of nitrate-nitrogen in wheat-corn season in North China Plain during 2001~2002 year.Leaching losses were calculated from measured flux of water percolation, soil water NO-3-N concentrations extracted by suction cup.The results showed that in the 2001~2002 wheat season, there was serious NO-3-N leaching, the highest value was 110 kg/hm2 in N800 treatment, the lowest was 0 kg/hm2 at N200 treatment, at N400 treatment it was 22 kg/hm2.In the 2002 corn season there were also leaching of NO-3-N, the loss of NO-3-N were 2 kg/hm2 in N200 treatment, 16 kg/hm2 in N400 treatment, 50 kg/hm2 in N800 treatment.
