Description
Nitrogen (N) fertility recommendations for cool-season grasses in the north central region of the USA have not been species specific. This broad recommendation assumes that all grasses have similar N demands, while seasonal growth patterns and dry matter yield of cool-season grass species vary. Nitrogen fertiliser costs have steadily increased, but recommendations are to be below optimal levels for economic return (Klausner et al., 1998). A more specific N fertiliser recommendation may increase the producers’ net income.
