| Abstract/Contents: | "Natural areas of golf courses are an important aspect of golf course ecology that golf patrons value, but can pose a challenge for management. In addition to their terrain often being steeper and harder to access, ground sprayers will often leave track marks in the taller vegetation and cause lodging of native species. UAVs present an opportunity for management in these challenging spaces, but the new technology has not been tested in these areas. Two goals of this research: 1) to evaluate weed control and aesthetics from these two application methods side by side, and 2) to evaluate effectiveness of different carrier volumes. Experiments were carried out at Lonnie Poole Golf Course in Raleigh, NC. Experimental units were 3m by 10m with 3m buffer between. PRE was applied March 17 and POST was applied June 9. Weed cover from the different treatments was evaluated and the time of each application was recorded. A lot of work still needs to be done to optimize drone sprayer systems, but the work seems promising, especially if the low carrier volumes can yield adequate weed control. Testing in short strips can be harder than treating larger areas, so there may be some better experimental design in the future." |
