Abstract

This study explores the optimization of sowing density for wheat after rice, evaluates its impact on wheat yield and growth performance, analyzes the key factors affecting sowing density, including soil conditions, climate factors, and variety characteristics after rice cultivation, compares the effects of high, low, and medium sowing density strategies on tillering, biomass accumulation, grain number and weight, and overall yield stability, and evaluates the actual effects of different sowing densities through case studies. Processing and observation provide valuable insights into the optimal density range, emphasizing the benefits of medium density planting, balanced resource efficiency, and maximizing yield. This study contributes to sustainable reinforcement work and provides practical recommendations for future research and policy-making.
