Abstract/Contents: | Discusses advancements in the technology of weather detectors. Acknowledges the impact that weather has on turfgrass quality and encourages superintendents to consider using weather forecasting technology. Elaborates on the following benefits of weather detection: soil temperature information, application timing accuracy, fertilizer activitiy predictability, calculation of growing degree days, insect and plant activity predictability, and disease predicitability. Also mentions how the weather station offers scientific support for management decisions. Emphasizes the need for further research into weather station application regarding turfgrass matters. |
