| Abstract/Contents: | "Playing quality of Lolium perenne L. turf subjected to football-type wear was studied in response to annual fertilizer nitrogen levels of 0, 25, 100, 225, 400 and 625 kg ha-1 N. Playing quality was measured in terms of player traction, ball rebound resilience and hardness before, during and after periods of artificial wear treatments which broadly coincided with the 1984/1985 and 1985/1986 football seasons. Before wear, traction increased rapidly with increasing nitrogen up to a maximum level and then declined at high levels of nitrogen. During wear, this type of response became more pronounced and the average optimum level of nitrogen to provide the greatest traction for the two seasons combined was 176 kg ha-1 N. Ball rebound resilience and hardness decreased in response to nitrogen before wear. During wear, ball rebound resilience and hardness in the 1984/1985 season showed no consistent response. However, in the 1985/1986 season, hardness showed a decreasing response which persisted during the period of wear. The PM sand carpet pitch provided good playing conditions throughout the football season in terms of published standards for traction and ball rebound resilience, but the turf exceeded the acceptable limits for hardness on some occasions. The implications of these results are discussed." |
