Field experiment demonstrates improved wheat yield through optimized ridge-furrow ratios, indicating enhanced soil quality and nutrient uptake.

This study aims to identify the optimal ridge-furrow ratio for enhancing soil nutrients, grain filling, and wheat yield.
Conducted a two-year field experiment comparing traditional and three ridge-furrow planting patterns.
Evaluated grain filling, soil nutrient content, and grain yield for each treatment.
Focused on a ridge-furrow ratio of 50 cm∶50 cm, 75 cm∶50 cm, and 100 cm∶50 cm.
M3 treatment (75 cm∶50 cm) significantly increased soil nutrient uptake and grain yield compared to other treatments.
Increased activities of soluble amylase and bound starch synthase were observed during grain filling.
M3 treatment led to a grain yield increase of 3.12−8.68% and 4.79−10.91% over other treatments.
