Estimating Transpiration From Turfgrass Using Stomatal Conductance Values Derived From Infrared Thermometry, Kenton W. Peterson, D. Bremer, J. M. Blonquist Jr.
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Infrared thermometry provides accurate measurements of plant canopy temperature, which, along with basic weather variables, allows estimation of canopy stomatal conductance to water vapor flux (gc) and transpiration. Using this method we compared modeled estimates of transpiration (CONDT) with evapotranspiration (ET) measurements from nearby microlysimeters (LYSET) in tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus Schreb.) turfgrass. Results indicated transpiration may be reliably estimated via calculation of gc in turfgrass.

Nitrous Oxide Emissions And Carbon Sequestration In Turfgrass: Effects Of Irrigation And Nitrogen Fertilization (Year 2), R. Braun, D. Bremer
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
This study was conducted from 2013–2016 to determine how irrigation and N fertilization may be managed to reduce N2O emissions and enhance carbon sequestration. In this study, annual nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions were greatest in urea and the least in unfertilized (no N) among treatments. During summer, the lower irrigation treatment resulted in less N2O emitted. All fertilizer and irrigation treatments maintained acceptable quality and high levels of percent green cover; however, the controlled-release fertilizer resulted in more consistent turf quality and green cover compared to urea and unfertilized. Urea fertilizer had higher peak …
Evaluating Zoysiagrass-Tall Fescue Mixtures In Kansas, Mingying Xiang, J. Fry, M. Kennelly
Evaluating Zoysiagrass-Tall Fescue Mixtures In Kansas, Mingying Xiang, J. Fry, M. Kennelly
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Water conservation is increasingly important when selecting turfgrasses. Zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica), a C4 grass, is more drought resistant than C3 grasses. However, there is some resistance to the use of zoysiagrass in lawns and golf courses due to its extended dormant period when turf is brown. The objective of this study was to evaluate mowing height, tall fescue seeding rate and time for establishment of a mixed stand with seeded zoysiagrass. Seeding zoysiagrass and tall fescue together in June generally resulted in a less uniform mixture than seeding zoysiagrass in June and then seeding tall fescue in September. …

2013 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program Bermudagrass Test: 2016 Data, L. Parsons, Michael J. Shelton, J. Griffin, J. Hoyle
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Kansas represents the northernmost region in the central United States where bermudagrass can be successfully grown as a perennial turfgrass. Historically, few cultivars that have both acceptable quality and adequate cold tolerance have been available to local growers. Because new introductions are continually being selected for improved hardiness and quality, both seeded and vegetative types need regular evaluation to determine their long-range suitability for use in Kansas.
Performance And Recovery Of Turfgrasses Subjected To Drought And Traffic Stresses, R. Braun, D. Bremer, J. Hoyle, N. Bloedow
Performance And Recovery Of Turfgrasses Subjected To Drought And Traffic Stresses, R. Braun, D. Bremer, J. Hoyle, N. Bloedow
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
This study is an effort to determine effects of drought and traffic in turfgrasses. During a 41-day summer drought in 2015 and 2016, warm-season (C4) grasses were more affected by traffic than cool-season (C3) grasses when percent green cover and turf quality were measured. This was because the non-trafficked plots in C4 grasses maintained higher percent green cover and turf quality throughout the drought due to better drought-stress tolerance than the C3 grasses. Regardless of traffic treatment or mowing height, C4 grasses maintained higher percent green cover and visual turf quality than C3 grasses during drought and recovery periods. There …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Long-term research trials provide an understanding of long-term effects on crop production. This long-term research studied the effect of conventional tillage (CT) and no-tillage (NT) systems. Factors of this 22-year study of corn (Zea mays L.) production also included the application of nitrogen (N) in the forms of ammonium nitrate and manure at rates of 150 lb/N/a. Corn grain yield trends during 2012 to 2016 were affected by the interaction between N source and year (P < 0.05). The interaction between tillage practices and N source and the overall interaction between the last 5 years did not yield performance (P > 0.05). Under the studied conditions the 75 lb/N/a as N fertilizer or manure achieved high corn yields.

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata) is a highly fecund noxious weed in Kansas and surrounding states. Individual plants are capable of producing greater than 1,000 seeds annually. Vigorous seed production allows sericea lespedeza to rapidly infiltrate native and cultivated grasslands; seed can be transported great distances via farm machinery and the alimentary canal of wild and domestic herbivores. In Kansas alone, sericea lespedeza infests more than 700 square miles of pasture, primarily in the Flint Hills region. The resulting damage to native habitats for wildlife and pasture quality for domestic herbivores has been devastating.
