Photograph of an automatic Bermudagrass sprigging machine (one row 3 point hookup) planting Bermudagrass on outside spillway cut. Sodding equipmant must be anchored to the truck or tractor on top cut or dam. One of the problems connected with this operation is getting grass planted at sufficent depth to prevent loss of roots from excessive drying. Anchor cable length is adjusted for each trip. Work being done under contract.

Photograph of water being applied after sodding. Furrows were left to hold water. Water is being supplied by an irrigation pump and a 2-inch fire hose. A half inch of water applied following sodding assures a better stand, especially during periods of high wind. A sprinkler irrigation system can also be used effectively.

Photograph of harvesting Bermudagrass roots for sodding flood retardation structure on Chigley-Sandy Creek watershed. Windrow roots immediately with a side delivery rake or other suitable farm equipment. Roots should be loaded within 30 minutes after freeing from the soil, to prevent excessive exposure to the sun and wind.

Photograph of Harvesting bermudagrass roots for sodding flood retardation structure on Chigley-Sandy Creek watershed. Area selected for root harvest is free from weeds, escessive top-growth, debris and rocks that would interfere with sodding operations. Tight soil is not too good for harvesting roots, as more work is needed to remove roots from the soil. Work the field in narrow strips. First time over the area, chisels should not be set too deep. Each trip go deeper until roots come to surface freely. Avoid harvesting weak rhizomes from old sod bound or overgrazed areas.
