| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a yard waste management survey "conducted in August 2005 during the annual Turfgrass Research Field Day that was held at the Rutgers Plant Science Research and Extension Farm near Adelphia, [New Jersey]." Results indicate that "most turfgrass managers leave clippings on the lawn and that only about 13% of them practice clipping removal every time they mow. When clippings are removed, results suggest that the clippings are often taken to a composting facility or they are land applied." Reports that "the findings from this survey suggest that the majority of lanscapers make an effort to manage yard waste in an environmentally responsible manner, but that there is a need for greater access to the composting facilities." |
