Abstract/Contents:"Studies were conducted at Thorsby, Alabama, during 1961 and 1962 to determine the interactions of soil moisture regime, rate of N, and clipping frequency on yield and N content of Coastal bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.). The major and most consistent interactions on yield was between moisture regime and N rate. Yield response to irrigation was obtained when N rates were 400 pounds or higher. The largest yield response to N rates was from the first increment at the higher levels of moisture. The interactions of N and irrigation on yield were restricted mainly to the rates of 200 and 400 pounds N per acre. Yield differences because of clipping frequency were greater at the higher soil moisture regimes and higher N rates. Average yields ranged from 1.9 tons per acre of oven-dry forage with no N at the high moisture regime clipped at 21-day intervals to 9.88 tons at the 1200-pound N rate at the high moisture regime clipped at 32-day intervals. Nitrogen content of the above-ground portion of the plants increased with clipping frequency and rate of N, but was not affected by soil moisture regime. From 20 to 89% of the applied N could be accounted for in the above-ground portion of the plants."
