Note: mm( d) ( d − mm): mm fixed water level was kept with duration of day at Jointing-booting stages from the soil surface and drained to − mm in days. <− mm: − mm was the upper limit of groundwater level, if groundwater level exceeded the value and drainage would be conducted. T1, T2, T3, and T4 denote different controlled treatments at jointing-booting stage; T5 as the control indicates conventional subsurface drainage.
