Abstract/Contents:Presents a study on nitrogen fate in a Kentucky bluegrass turf. States that "this project was designed to compare the fate of a single N application applied in the early spring (what could be termed a conventional N application timing) or in the fall (often called a late-fall or dormant N application)." Results indicate that "nitrogen applied to a dense, well-maintained turf is rapidly utilized by the turf with little chance of downward N mobility. Timing of N application does not have a large impact on N fate or leaching. Late fall applied N is also raplidly utilized by soil microorganisms and turfgrass plants. Approximately one-third of the applied N was recovered in the turfgrass clippings in the three years following application."
