Abstract/Contents: | "A predominantly browntop turf, mown at three heights and three frequencies, was subjected to two levels of studded roller treatment, and treated with two rates of phosphate. Variations in height of cut produced significant differences in residual green leaf, root growth, tiller numbers and yield of clippings. Frequency of mowing also induced significant differences in yield of clippings and tiller numbers. The studded roller treatment reduced root growth and tiller numbers but no effect on the botanical composition of the turf was recorded. Phosphate treatments had no effect on turf quality. No treatment made any significant change in Poa annua content." |
