Abstract:
      Alfalfa water requirement(WR) and the water consumption(WC) in the whole growth season were about 450~1 100 mm and 300~1 450 mm,respectively,the highest WR and highest WC were 1 900 mm and 2 245 mm,respectively.The ranges of water requirement rates(WRR) and water consumption rates(WCR) of alfalfa during the whole growth season were 3~7 mm/d and 2~7 mm/d,respectively.The highest WRR in a short period was 14 mm/d.The range of the water use efficiencies(WUE) in biomass and economic yield(14% contained with water) of alfalfa in the first planting year were about 8~12 kg/(mm·hm2) and(9~14 kg/(mm·hm2),) respectively,in two and more than two planting years were 12~25 kg/(mm·hm2) and 14~29 kg/(mm·hm2),respectively.
