Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "the environmental impact of turf colorants is noteworthy because green fairways are produced using less water and fewer pesticides and fertilizers versus overseeding." Explains that many superintendents in the southeast United States are advocating the use of turf colorants instead of overseeding with ryegrass, and in doing so are "conserving natural resources, spending less money, enhancing the quality of their bermudagrass turf base, and delivering a product that meets customer expectations." Identifies the potential agronomic and economic benefits of utilizing colorants, noting that one can expect consistent turf color, superior fall conditions, and a smoother spring transition. Provides recommendations for product selection, the application process, and the equipment needed. |
