Abstract/Contents:Describes a trial conducted "to evaluate the effects of different over-seeding rates on the appearance of a heavily worn perennial ryegrass sward (simulating an end of season winter sports pitch)." States that the study was established at the Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI) on May 20, 2004, and used five different perennial ryegrass seed rates. Results include that "overall variation among seed rates was markedly less than the difference observed between the over seeding treatments and the unseeded control." Concludes that "increasing over seeding rate by two to three times the standard rate could produce a well grassed and visually attractive sward more quickly then over seeding at the standard rate."
