SUMMARY
Studies have found that shelterbelts may lead to or exacerbate water resource conflicts (Xi et_al, 2013; Fu et_al, 2016, 2020), and decrease water use efficiency (WUE) and yield of adjacent crops (Li et_al, 2010; He et_al, 2016; Liu et_al, 2020). Water is the most important factor influencing the growth of plants in an oasis (Ong et_al, 2002; Wang et_al, 2018; Zhang et_al, 2022). At present, there are few studies on the impacts of the shelterbelt on the WUE and productivity of adjacent crops in arid areas, such as Xinjiang, China (Sang et_al, 2015; Lian . . .
