Abstract/Contents: | Discusses irrigation water collection. States that "water from water treatment companies is...an option which needs to be looked at, especially in the south of the [United Kingdom]." Suggests using deep rooting grass plants, "as they can deal better with drought conditions." Also addresses questions, including whether putting sand on pitches is sustainable, how to reduce cracks in soil and how to improve the environment on golf courses. |
