Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted "to demonstrate the impact of conventional lawn care, IPM [integrated pest management], no-pesticide and alternative herbicides on turf quality and pest infestations"; and "to document the results of maintaining turf without pesticides for a three year period." Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "there were four management programs and they include: conventional, IPM, alternatives and no pesticides." Reports that "the turf quality was consistently highest in the conventional plots, followed closely by the IPM plots, alternative plots and the lowest quality was consistently the no-pesticide plots." States that "mowing height had a small effect on the percent broadleaf weed cover but it had less of an effect than fertility."
