| Abstract/Contents: | The fine fescue management study includes ten cultivars. Each is maintained at two mowing heights, divided into two fertilizer treatment, and is irrigated as needed. At the inch mowing height, only scaldis maintained a satisfactorily quality at the 1 lb N/1000 ft2/yr rate. Reliant, scaldis, and Jamestown were the best cultivar at the 3 lb N/1000 ft2/yr rate. This study has been in progress for eight seasons. The fact that any of these grasses have maintained an acceptable cover at a 1-inch mowing height for that length of time is surprising. There is a large difference between poorly rated cultivars and acceptable cultivars. The choice of fine fescue cultivars for this region should be made carefully, as many are not well adapted to Iowa conditions. |
