| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Lawn Demonstration Project, stating that it "began in spring 2003 and continued on the same areas in spring 2004." Explains that "this project compared and demonstrated the effectiveness of conventional, [IPM], alternative, and no-pesticide approaches to lawn maintenance." Describes the study, stating that "the study was established in three municipal settings: Guelph, Brantford and London [Ontario, Canada]." Details the results of the study at each municipality, focusing on turf quality; broadleaf weed; and crabgrass. Reports that in London "hairy chinch bug, sod webworm and grubs were found in both management programs but in numbers below their IPM threshold levels." Concludes that "turf quality was high in conventional followed by IPM, alternative and no pesticide programs." |
