The article investigates the effects of different cropping rotations on soil moisture and economic benefit. Cabbage&ndash:maize&ndash:cabbage (CMC), beans&ndash:maize&ndash:cabbage (BMC), and cabbage&ndash:cabbage&ndash:cabbage (CCC) treatments were set up to study the effects of different crop rotation combinations on soil water storage, evapotranspiration (ET), water use efficiency (WUE), and economic benefit. The results showed that the average soil moisture content decreased initially and then increased with crop rotation, whereas it continued to decrease with continuous cabbage cropping as the crop grew. CMC reduced ET, whereas BMC increased ET from the nodulation to maturation stages of cabbage compared with CCC in the third experimental year. WUE of different crops showed that cabbage >: maize >: beans. The economic benefit of the CMC was higher than the other treatments in the third planting year. Therefore, the best crop rotation combination in this area is cabbage&ndash:maize&ndash:cabbage.
