Abstract/Contents:In field trials in 1976 at 2 sites in the Pedralbes area NW of Barcelona, irrigated swards of perennial ryegrass were given 0, 250, 500 kg or 1 t N/ha as nitrate-N or ammonium-N and harvested weekly. The highest fertilizer levels were not sufficient to reach saturation growth response, probably due to the intensive irrigation and subsequent losses of N by leaching and denitrification. Growth rate (g/m2 21 days) reached a peak in the spring (April-May) and a 2nd smaller peak in the autumn (Sept.-Oct.) and increased with increase in N rate (more marked in the spring than in the autumn) and was equal or greater with ammonium-N at the higher N rate and with nitrate at the lower N rates. Equations relating fertilizer rates and dry and fresh wt. are presented.
