The plant growth regulator trinexapac-ethyl (TE) has been evaluated in five registration trials in Finland and Norway. In 2007, TE was applied monthly at rates 0.023-0.090 kg a.i. ha-1 in a creeping bentgrass green trial and 0.057-0.339 kg a.i. ha-1 in two bluegrass/fescue fairway trials. Seasonal clipping yield reductions varied from 8 to 21 % in the green trial and from 0 to 25 % in the fairway trials; reductions were usually significant at two, but not at four weeks after application. Phytotoxic effects were observed at rates ≥ 0.113 kg a.i. ha-1 in one of the fairway trials, but TE resulted in less snow mould and faster green-up in 2008 in the other fairway trial and in the green trial. In a new green trial established 2008, weekly or biweekly applications of TE at rates 0.017-0.051 kg a.i. ha-1 reduced clippings by an average of 25 % and increased ball roll distance by an average of 6 %, however,  differences among sprayed plots were not significant. In conclusion, we recommend that TE be approved for use on Scandinavian golf courses. Recommeded rates and application intervals are 0.023-0.046 kg a.i. ha-1 every 1-2 weeks on greens and 0.057-0.113 kg a.i. ha-1 every 2-3 weeks on fairways. The lower rates must always be used at the first application.

The first joint Scandinavian variety testing for lawn (mowing height 25 mm), sport turf (mowing height 35, regular wear) and fairway (mowing height 15 mm) was carried out from 2005 to 2008 (http://www.scanturf.org/). The Nordic counties were divided into one northern (mostly continental, NZ) and one southern (mostly coastal, SZ) climatic zone with four and three test sites, respectively. Besides control varieties, 28 and 24 varieties were tested in NZ and SZ, respectively.  Based on these trials the following varieties are candidates to be added to Nordic turfgrass cultivar guide for at least one climatic zone and at least one are of use (lawn, fairway and/or sport turf;   control varieties are indicated in parantheses): Festuca rubra ssp. commutata: Bargreen, Greensleeves, Legende Margret, Rosetti 1 and Wagner 1 (Center) Festuca rubra ssp. trichophylla: Seabreeze (Barcrown) Festuca rubra: ssp. rubra, SZ: Celianna, Shadow II (Pernille, Frigg) Poa pratensis: Kaitos, Mozart 1 and Ravel 1 (Conni, Limousine) Lolium perenne: Vesuvius (Bargold) Agrostis capillaris: Leirin (Bardot, Nor)

The results from two field trials (Landvik and Apelsvoll) showed that the use of a proper combination of nitrogen rate and topdressing level is very important for thatch control. In coastal areas with ample rainfall, velvet bentgrass should be dusted with find sand every week or at least every other week, totalling around 10-14 mm per season. Nitrogen rate should be held at a level just to get an acceptable color. Weekly grooming, monthly verticutting and spiking twice a year are also needed to control thatch on velvet bentgrass greens, but heavy mechanical treatments should be avoided due to slow recuperative capacity of velvet bentgrass.

Sørger man for god agronomi i alle ledd og tilpasser gjødslingsmengde og tildeling, er mye lagt for en god kornavling med bedre N-effektivitet. Undersøkelser viser at N-effektiviteten øker ved høyere avlingsnivå, selv om det her gjødsles sterkere.
