| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses turf aeration, focusing on thatch stating that "aeration is essential in order to...destroy thatch through a process of both direct removal and elimination of the stagnation that encourages thatch formation." Briefly mentions the potential benefits of the "ProCore 864 and 1298 tractor-mounted aerators," and the Procore 648 pedestrian aerator. Describes the SISIS Aer-Aid system as a potential solution to compaction that, "utilises [utilizes] air injection to distribute air throughout the root zone...without disturbing the surface." Describes the potential benefits of deep aeration while using the Soil Reliever. Discusses the potential benefits of using the Gwazae deep probe aerator. Highlights the Blec Vibra Sandmaster/Groundbreaker combination and its potential benefits. |
