Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to evaluate "corn gluten meal (CGM)...for efficacy as a natural herbicide for turf." States that "this long-term study began in 1995." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "the experimental plot is in established 'Ram 1' Kentucky bluegrass. The soil is a Nicollet (fine-loamy, mixed, mesic Aqua Hapludolls). Prior to treatment in 1995, the percentage broadleaf weed cover within the study perimeter exceeded 50%...Each year corn gluten meal is applied to the same plots at a yearly rate of 40 lb [pounds] CGM/1000 ft2 [square feet]...using four different regimes of single and split applications for a total of five treatments." Reports that "the lack of statistically significant differences in spite of large differences in weed counts is likely due to a high degree of variability among the control plots." |
