In order to explore the effects of different water saving irrigation methods on maize plant growth parameters and yield, three water-saving irrigation methods of low pressure pipe irrigation, drip irrigation under film and sprinkler irrigation were chosen in Tongliao City of Inner Mongolia. And under the same irrigation quota in the whole growth period, we observed soil moisture change, plant height, stem diameter, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, biomass, plant grain weight of maize and so on in the whole growth period. The results showed as the following. Different irrigation times had great effect on soil moisture content under the same irrigation quota, which affected crop growth. Effects of different water-saving irrigation methods on maize plant growth and yield were also significant. In the whole growth period, maize biomass of drip irrigation under film mulch was higher than that of sprinkler irrigation, that of sprinkler irrigation was higher than that of low pressure pipe irrigation, that of drip irrigation under film mulch was 46.74% higher than that of sprinkler irrigation and 98.81% higher than that of low pressure pipe irrigation, that of sprinkler irrigation was 35.49% higher by than that of low pressure pipe irrigation. The actual production of drip irrigation under film mulch was 2.85% greater than that of sprinkler irrigation, and 7.83% greater than that of low pressure pipe irrigation, that of sprinkler irrigation is 4.84% greater than that of low pressure pipe irrigation. In general, the three irrigation methods, drip irrigation under film was the best, followed by sprinkler irrigation, and the low pressure pipe irrigation came next.
