Effect of Depth of Water Table on Yield of Ladino Clover, Orchardgrass, and Tall Fescue1

W. B. Gilbert and D. S. Chamblee2

Synopsis: Without surface watering, Ladino clover, orchardgrass, and tall rescue produced 20, 54, and 71% more, respectively, with 6-inch water tables, than with 12- and 20-inch water tables. With 1 inch of surface water per week, a large increase in yields was obtained with the lower water tables, and a depression with the 6-inch water tables. With surface watering, the depths of water tables had little effect on the yield of Ladino clover.
