Abstract/Contents: | "Conventional chemistry is considered the most accurate method of turfgrass tissue analysis but it is also the most costly and time consuming method. Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS), on the other hand, promises a simplified method for superintendents to monitor turfgrass tissue nutrient status. In this study, NIRS was only accurate in detecting tissue nitrogen and calcium levels. NIRS did not accurately estimate the other tissue chemical components. Therefore, NIRS is only recommended for use in monitoring turfgrass tissue nitrogen and calcium levels." |
