Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to investigate "the effects of three irrigation methods on leachate quantity and quality, irrigation volumes, and putting green performance." Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "irrigation treatments consisted of daily replacement of 80% evapotranspiration, adjusting irrigation based on root depth, and utilizing soil moisture as determined by a TDR soil moisture probe to schedule irrigation." Reports that "data showed that irrigation based on soil moisture led to significantly greater irrigation and leachate volumes." Concludes that "alternating between the three irrigation treatments during the growing season may lead to reduced water usage and better putting green performance." |
