  Cleanness of Cutting advert image shown if present

Image shown for entry if relevant and present

A characteristic which is used to evaluate the relative cleanness of cut which is produced across the leaf width of a turfgrass cultivar. Perennial ryegrass is the main species for which this relates. Ensuring mowers are well sharpened and correctly set so as to produce a sharp cut between the bottom blade and cylinder, as well as cutting in as dry conditions as practicable will help to contribute to a cleaner cut.
