Abstract/Contents: | Reports that "it may be possible to combine the routine of golf course maintenance operations of sand topdressing and pesticide application into one efficient operation, using a combination sprayer/ topdresser machine." Notes that this machine could potentially reduce costs, "play distribution," and be environmentally friendly. Mentions that "proof of concept' research is underway for the control of turfgrass diseases such as dollar spot and anthracnose, and to expand the utility of this technology beyond fungicides, to fertilizers and other sprayable turfgrass maintenance products." |
