Bermudagrass Production in Florida

Sod Production Using Seeded Bermudagrass

The development of improved seeded bermudagrass cultivars has led to an increased interest in these grasses for numerous areas of turfgrass use. One area that has yet to be investigated is the potential to produce sod using a seed-propagated bermudagrass, rather than the standard practice of vegetative propagation, which is currently used. To this end, a series of studies are underway to invest...

Cattle performance and production when grazing Bermudagrass at two forage mass levels in the southern Piedmont.

Performance and production of growing cattle (Bos taurus) on Coastal Bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] pasture are affected by forage allowance, but possible interactions with fertilizer nutrient source (i.e., inorganic vs. organic) and time have not been well described. We evaluated the effects of 3 nutrient sources with equivalent N rates: 1) inorganic, 2) crimson clover (Trifolium i...

Brightly Colored Pepper Cultivars For Greenhouse Production In Florida Nicole

Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) grown in Florida has traditionally been field-grown and harvested at a mature-green stage. However, the demand for highquality colored pepper has led producers to look at pepper grown under protected structures. Thirty-six colored pepper cultivars (red, orange, yellow, chocolate, and purple) from both Israeli and Dutch seed companies were compared during the Fal...
