| Abstract/Contents: | Briefly states that "the cost of topdressing 40 acres of athletic fields with fertilizers and chemicals dropped from $75,000 in 2001 to $28,000 [in 2004] as a result of using 1/2-inch minus compost." In addition, water usage also dropped as a result of the compost applications. Mike Cabral of Mass Development says, "...we are considering reducing or altogether dropping our chemical applications, which will be another huge cost saving." |
