Abstract/Contents: | States that "environmental issues of runoff and groundwater contamination actually favor fertigation. But all these benefits occur only when sprinkler coverage and uniformity are known and under control." Also states that "the primary potential source of nitrogen from fertigation is water from sprinklers running into culverts and cath basins and from there into storm drains or lakes." Concludes that "fertigation needs to be taken much more seriously than it is...for fertilizing large turf areas." |
