Abstract/Contents:"For establishing turfs in heavily used play-grounds, a basic experiment was conducted in which artificial trampling was applied over turfs, using 6 warm-season turfgrasses, amendments and fertilizer. Appling 15 tramplings/day for a total of 6 months revealed that bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers,) was the most tolerant (in the sense of the percent verdure remaining), followed by St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze) and Zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.). the more tolerant turfgrasses had heavier underground parts and less soil compaction occurred in their turfs, indicating that a cushioning effect against soil compaction of the developed underground part is attributed to the tolerance. Both topdressing crumb rubber and appliying SiO2 fertilizer appeared to be effective to reduce the damage from trampling. It was suggested that the former increased the tolerance of turfgrass through the mechanical protection and also reducing soil compaction, and the latter through strengthening plant tissue."
