Abstract/Contents:Discusses turfgrass cultivar testing in New Zealand during the late 1970s, explaining that "cultivars that are found to be of a high enough standard are...recommended by the N.Z. [New Zealand] Turf Culture Institute to the Acceptable Herbage Cultivar Committee of the Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries, for inclusion in the Acceptable Amenity Cultivar List." Describes the Turfgrass Trials, which "are carried out mainly at the Palmerston North Headquarters of Grasslands Division." Focuses on plot size, maintenance, fertilizing, cultivar groups, and factors affecting testing methods. Reports that turfgrass is tested for disease resistance, wear resistance, potential in cultivar mixtures, and seeding rates.
