Mowing out the areas ready to be linemarked for the last competitive game of the season on Rugby 1, the principal rugby pitch at Hartpury College
and the flooding down-stream has to be fairly severe for it to cause us problems,” explained Mark. “For the vast majority of most years, our drainage system performs very well.” To maintain good grass
growth on free-draining pitches, Mark and his staff are able to call on two Briggs hose-reel irrigators whenever there is a need for additional water during prolonged dry or hot weather, or following new seedings. “In addition to having the
resources of a local weather station, the groundstaff are able to judge visually the need for irrigation depending on the appearance and condition of the turf,” he said. “Having the ability to apply water when required is very useful and we make good use of the lake as a reservoir, with the pump house located less than 300 metres from the Rugby 1 pitch.” Although Hartpury currently
has an annual water abstraction licence for 10 million litres from April to October inclusive, this figure is set to be cut by fifty percent from 2015 onwards.
“That amount should still be more than sufficient for our needs,” commented Mark. “However, we shall have to be more diligent in drier periods and when establishing new grasses.”
With a programme currently in place for the application of 300kg/ha of Universal 16 (16:16:16) granular fertiliser three times a year - in line with Dave Powell’s recommendations - Mark believes that it could be expedient to look at controlled- release fertilisers to counter the college’s reduced irrigation water availability from next year.
“We shall weigh up the costs
and probably carry out a trial application on part of a pitch this year,” he said. “In the meantime, I am pleased to say that our newest pitch, created in autumn 2012 and known as Football 3, has shown excellent recovery from play which started in earnest last autumn. Sport, and the surfaces on which it is played, simply never stand still at Hartpury.”
Although Hartpury currently has an annual water abstraction licence for 10 million litres, this figure is set to be cut by 50% from 2015 onwards
