Abstract/Contents: | Discusses golf rough maintenance, focusing on their use to potentially enhance biodiversity at a course. Addresses the use of chemicals to improve rough habitats, and states that "using a product which removes specific plants from ecosystems will change the physical structure of the habitat, as well as taking out plants which may be vital as food sources or living spaces for invertebrates or other animals." Advises golf courses to invest in wildlife development. |
