| Abstract/Contents: | Describes soccer field maintenance procedures, stating that "good turf doesn't just happen. It takes careful planning and hard work." Suggests soil testing "to help...understand the 'nutrient values' of the soil and know how much fertilizer and what kind [the] field needs." Also sates that "an effective field management program requires careful, regular field inspeciton." Suggests inspecting "each field at least every other week all year round, including during the off season...[and keeping] an eye out for mowing problems." Discusses fertilization, aeration and topdressing, watering, mowing, weed control, and overseeding for fields in the southern, southwestern, and northern United States. Also mentions zone-specific maintenance practices. |
