USGA Summary Points: | University of Nebraska researchers are characterizing the long-term effects of rootzone mix on soil physical and chemical parameters. Results to date indicate that as the green matures, soil infiltration decreases until approximately the ninth or tenth year at which point the infiltration appears to stabilize at 20cm/hr (7.9 inches/hr). The decrease in infiltration may be attributable to placement and movement of fine sand particles from topdressing sand or accumulated organic matter. |
