Establishing Seeded Tall Fescue with Covers and Drip Irrigation Methods

چکیده
The use of covers may improve establishment seeded turfgrass but their in combination with drip irrigation techniques has not been evaluated. We investigated the effects two cover types and three methods on tall fescue turfgrass. For spring seeding [Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort.], turf was successful subsurface (SDI) aboveground (AGD) fine textured soil transition zone. With SDI, AGD, or sprinkler irrigation, both polyester mesh (Poly) straw blanket (Straw) improved order Poly > Straw No Cover, became similar over time. Soil surface temperature averaged higher (14°C [57°F]) than (9.5°C [49°F]) Cover (8.6°C [47.5°F]) during first 12 days after when were installed. Results indicate that seeded, cool-season a fine-textured US zone climate by mitigating low extremes reducing erosion rainfall. Establishment between (SDI AGD) protective is recommended establishing from seed.

widely used forage crop. It is insect and nematode resistant, tolerates poor soil and climatic conditions well and has a long growing season. Unfortunately, tall fescue also has a downside. Most tall fescue in the state is infected with a fungal endophyte, Neotyphodium coenophialum (formerly called Acremonium coenophialum) that is toxic to animals. Tall fescue was brought to this country from E...

Tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub) is a cool season perennial grass that fills a critical forage produc-tion gap in the Southeast and is the predominant forage crop in much of the U.S. In fact, this species is the most widely used grass in improved U.S. pastures, occupying more than 36 million acres. Its popularity is related to establishment ease, drought tolerance, excellent graz...

Six mature geldings of light horse breeds (557 ± 37 kg) were randomly assigned to a nontoxic endophyte-infected tall fescue hay (n = 3) or pasture treatment (n = 3) in a crossover design with 14-d periods to estimate DMI with alkane markers and to compare DMI of hay and pasture. When fed pasture, horses were housed in stalls from 0700 to 1300 h daily with access to water and then grazed pasture...

Water salinity and drought are the major abiotic stresses limiting turf grass growth. On the other hand, shortage of waterresources and salinity of water and soil in the arid and semi-arid zones such as Iran, are the restricting factors in developinglawn turf grasses. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of water salinity and deficit irrigation ontall fescue (Festuca aru...
