Abstract/Contents: | Discusses aerification experiments conducted with a solid homemade tine aerifier, explaining that "the process left the ground fluffy and not just slick round holes." States that the problem of the wear pattern left by riding greenmowers "has been eliminated due to this method of aerification, along with it's efficiency and cost saving factors." Explains that "this method works on the principal of ballistics and shatters the entire area around the hole and...there is no compaction due to this type of tine." |
