5. Conclusions
- (1)
- After modeling and validation, the DSSAT-CERES-Rice model can be well applied to simulate the double-harvest rice production in Nanchang.
- (2)
- Compared with the base year (1961–2015), the future average annual precipitation shows an increasing trend, and its value will be higher than the base year after 2036, while the daily maximum and minimum temperature showed an increasing trend, but the solar radiation was lower than the average of the base year.
- (3)
- Under the RCP4.5 scenario, the future yield of double-harvest rice in the Nanchang area was lower than that in the experimental year, and the yield reduction in early rice was more obvious. The yield of early rice and late rice increased with time, but the yield of early rice and late rice in 2070 was still reduced by 24.25% and 24.47%, respectively.
- (4)
- Adjusting the proportion of nitrogen application had a positive effect on the yield of early rice. Under the RCP4.5 scenario, the best treatment was 2035 (the yield of the two nitrogen application modes increased by 14.56% and 8.06%, respectively compared with that before adjustment).
- (5)
- Reasonable change of sowing date can improve the final yield of rice to a certain extent. In 2021–2035, the best yield of double-harvest rice can be obtained when the sowing date of early rice is about 15 days earlier and the sowing date of late rice is about 10 days earlier. From 2035 to 2050, the sowing date of double-harvest will be advanced by about 10 days, and the total yield of double-harvest rice will be higher. In 2050–2070, the total yield of double-harvest rice may reach the best when the sowing date is delayed by 10–15 days.
