Abstract/Contents:Identifies turf applications that "have been tried and tested in effectiveness", highlighting "top dressing", "fertiliser [fertilizer]", "pesticides", and "wetting agents." Suggests "the use of manganese to reduce take-all infection of cereal crops" as an example of a possibly beneficial method. States that "it is not possible to say whether a particular product has had an effect on turf quality by applying it to all 18 greens of a golf course. No proper comparisons have been made with untreated turf areas."
