잔디관리에 이용될 수 있는 몇 몇 시판 비료들의 Zoysiagrass의 생육에 미치는 영향

Turfgrass management had not been recognized as the subject to research until the social demand for turfgrass increased. This study was carried out to compare the effects of several complete fertilizers and ureaform(UF) with those of traditional fertilizers used for general agriculture. Complete fertilizers used in this study include Jandibiryo, Chojikwanri, Wonyebokbi and 18 - 18 - 18. Three exteriments were conducted in the established zoysiagrass field (over 5 years), in the recently established zoysiagrass field(1 years), and in the pots using artificially mixed media. In the established zoysiagrass, UF, Wonyebokbi, Chojikwanri and 18 - 18 - 18 resulted in higher growth rate, while Chojikkwanri and Jandibiryo showed better performance in the recently established zoysiagrass. Jandibiryo resulted in higher growth rate of zoysiagrass with the artificially mixed soil which is relatively infertile. Righer growth rates were maintained longer with UF, Jandidiryo, Chojikwanri than urea 18-18-18 and Wonyebokbi. Wonyebokbi had the characteristics of producing more stolons and rhyzomes than the other fertilizers.
