Abstract/Contents: | Brief report of research on whether thatch accumulation could be a potential management concern with the new turf-type tall fescue varieties. The study conducted on 39 varieties shows that thatch was present in all varieties ranging in thickness from 0.64 to 1.14 in. Generally, the pasture-type varieties developed the least thatch while the newer turf-types, including dwarf varieties, accumulated the most. |
