| Abstract/Contents: | Examined the use of water by turfgrass plants, ways to conserve water and turfgrass species best suited to the conservation of water. Factors influencing water use included the environmental factors of turf sward, temperature, wind and relative humidity. Cultural factors included nitrogen fertilization, mowing height and frequency, pest activity and irrigation practices. As displayed in table form, warm season turfgrasses had a greater potential for water conservation than did cool season grasses. Sprinkler irrigation was found to be superior to subterranean irrigation for water conservation and a well-designed, uniform irrigation system was paramount to maximize water conservation efforts. |
