Abstract/Contents: | "Common bermudagrass forage grown with and without crimson clover contained significantly higher percentages of N, P, and K than Coastal bermudagrass forage similarly fertilized. The N content of the grass forage was increased by each increment of N applied, ranging from approximately 1.6% N with no N fertilization to 2.7% N at the 448-kg/ha N rate. The P and K contents of both grasses were also increased by increasing levels of fertilization. Harvest date had a pronounced effect on the N, P, and K contents of the grass forage, which peaked at the July harvest. Coastal bermudagrass recovered more nutrients from the soil than common bermudagrass - to 86% of the applied N, up to 46% of the applied P, and as much as 191% of the applied K. This greater nutrient uptake by Coastal was a result of the higher yields obtained with this grass. The P and K contents of crimson clover grown in association with the grasses were significantly increased by fertilization. The K content of crimson clover grown with common bermudagrass was significantly higher than that of crimson clover grown with Coastal bermudagrass at most fertility levels." |
