| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the range in suggested application rates of nitrogen used to fertilize turf. States that "factors that are important in determining the amount of nitrogen required include: soil properties (such as drainage), level of traffic, extent of irrigation, amount of sunlight, age of site (determined by how much organic matter is present), how the clippings are managed, and the desired level of quality (equivalent to the amount of maintenance)." Discusses problems of using too much nitrogen regarding water quality, and environmental concerns. Suggests that "some day this or other techniques may be used to refine nitrogen applications on site-by-site case and remove the range of rates now commonly used." |
