© University of Florida Plant vs. Irrigation Water Requirement Plant water requirement is the total water (rain+irrigation) required by the plants Irrigation water requirement includes some estimate of rainfall for plant water needs Both concepts infer well-watered (i.e. non- stressed) conditions

© University of Florida Turfgrass Plant Water Requirements St. Augustine & bermudagrass, 43 inches/yr, S. Florida (Stewart and Mills, 1967) Bahiagrass, 33 inches/yr, N. Florida (Jia et al., 2007)

Timing is Everything!

© University of Florida Turfgrass Plant Water Requirements St. Augustine & bermudagrass, 43 inches/yr, S. Florida (Stewart and Mills, 1967) Bahiagrass, 33 inches/yr, N. Florida (Jia et al., 2007) SWFWMD landscape coefficient for permitting study: similar water use for St. Augustine, Zoysia, and bahiagrass in first half year

© University of Florida Turfgrass Irrigation Water Requirements - Range Cardenas-Lailhacar (2008), no irrigation required on bermudagrass Davis (2008), reduced time schedule, 2 d/wk irrigation of ~22.5 inches/yr resulted in acceptable turf quality in a year with frequent dry periods ( )

© University of Florida Turfgrass Irrigation Water Requirements – Days of the Week Shedd et al. (2008) showed that 1 d/wk irrigation on established St. Augustinegrass resulted in poor or reduced turfgrass quality during drought (spring 06 & 07) Peacock and Dudeck (1984) reported good St. Augustinegrass quality for irrigation every 6 days
