Effect of Different Doses of Combined Fertilizer On The Turf Performances of Ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea) Mixtures
Abstract :
In this study, effect of different doses of (0-25-50-75 kg/da/year) combined fertilizer (N-P-K; 12-12- 12) on the turf performances of pure or mixed sown Lolium perenne and Festuca arundinacea were tested under Bayındır / Izmir ecological conditions during 2004-2006. Properties such as tillering, cover, green matter yield , dry matter rate and yield were determined. Results of experiments indicated that, intensive fertilizer treatment was necessary in the loamy and sparcely textured soils of the area and, 50 kg/da/year combined fertilizer treatment provided the best result in all grass choices weather purely sown with one grass or Festuca arundinacea rich mixtures.
