| Abstract/Contents: | "Organic turfgrass management is not commonly practiced on golf courses where diseases can damage turf surfaces and disrupt play. The Vineyard Golf Club was mandated by the local permitting agencies on the Island of Martha's Vineyard, MA to be organically managed. They defined organic as being managed without the benefit of synthetically derived pesticides. When The Vineyard Golf Club (VGC) opened for play in May of 2002, Dollar Spot (caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett) was the most common disease of fairway and putting green turf on the course. Management of this disease focuses on the use of plant defense inducing products (i.e., Civitas), frequent applications of biological control products (e.g., Ecoguard and Rhapsody) and fertility to encourage rapid recovery of disease symptoms. Success of organic practices is also achieved through communications with the members. VGC members take pride in the organic management program and tolerate temporary reductions in turf quality on certain areas of the course. This presentation will highlight the organic management program as it has evolved through the last 12 years." |
