Other claims from this paper (19)
- Association Barcel and HiMag tall fescue did not differ in Mg, S and Cl concentrations.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer decreased Mg concentrations, with the decrease inconsistent across harvests.
- Intervention effect Mg fertilizer increased Mg concentrations, with the increase inconsistent across harvests.
- Association HiMag had higher Ca concentrations than Barcel, with the difference growing across harvests.
- Intervention effect Potassium fertilizer decreased Ca concentrations in the first, fourth and fifth harvests only.
- Intervention effect Mg fertilization decreased Ca concentrations by a greater magnitude in HiMag.
- Association HiMag had lower K concentrations than Barcel in the first three harvests.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer increased K concentration in all five harvests.
- Association HiMag contained less Na than Barcel.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer decreased S concentrations in first-harvest grass.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer increased S concentrations in second- and third-harvest grass.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer had no effect on S concentrations in fourth- or fifth-harvest grass.
- Intervention effect Mg fertilizer decreased S concentrations of tall fescue.
- Intervention effect K fertilizer increased DCAD of grass from the second to fifth harvests.
- Association The DCAD increase from K fertilizer was smaller in HiMag than in Barcel.
- Intervention effect K2SO4 increased dry matter yield and S concentrations of HiMag tall fescue.
- Intervention effect K applied as KCl increased K and Cl concentrations.
- Association HiMag fertilized with K2SO4 had lower DCAD than with KCl.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer formulation had no effect on Na concentrations.
