Abstract/Contents:Announces that "the Simcoe County District School Board, with trial partners Dol Turf Restoration, DCS Agronomics, Sports Turf International, Agrium and Vanden Bussche Irrigation, have begun a two-year study on the effects of specific cultural practices and slow-release nitrogen products on two existing high school sportsfields." Reports that the results will be monitored and tracked by state-of-the-art GPS [Global Positioning System] mapping and plant health monitoring systems as well as through visual evaluations." States that "over a two-year period, different aeration methods such as deep-tining, traditional coring, shattertine and solid tine treatments will be used on randomized, three-replication plots." Concludes that "the end goal is to identify the most effective methods and product applications for a school field environment."
