Abstract: A field experiment of two drip fertigation methods(single lateral and double laterals per plant, abbreviated as DF1 and DF2)and sprinkling tape fertigation (CK) as on growth and yield of banana in Hainan province was conducted to offer a technological support for banana irrigation and fertilization. The results indicated that, as compared with sprinkling tape fertigation, the total irrigation amount of drip fertigation with single and double laterals during the whole banana growth period was only 51.5% and 59.2%, respectively. And the yield was increased by 9.6% and 11.5%, respectively. However, as compared with CK and DF1 treatment, the net benefit of fruit production was increased by DF2 treatment due to higher yield.
