Abstract/Contents:"This study evaluated nitrification inhibitors ie Dwell and Nitrapyrin on established Baron Kentucky bluegrass. By inhibiting the microbial oxidation of NH4+ to NO3-, three advantages can be achieved. The first is to reduce N leaching from the root zone thus reducing N loss to the turf. Secondly to reduce groundwater contamination by NO3- leaching and lastly to decrease the energy needed to metabolise N. The plots used for this study are managed under four nutrient combinations, N, NK, NP and NPK and 3 rates; high, medium, and low. The inhibitor was applied to the east half of each plot. To determine the effectiveness of the treatment soil water, clipping weights, and the nutrient content of the turf plants will be analized. Turf scores will be recorded."
