Synopsis Nitrogen fertilization increased the production of Pensacola bahiagrass but did not influence the seasonally of production. Over a 3‐year period total production averaged 12% in April and May, 64% in June and July, and 24% in August and September. Phosphorus content of the forage was very high (0.36%) and averaged 41% higher than the calcium content.
