Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study designed "to evaluate calcined clay in a tilling renovation process and its effects on turfgrass growth." A field used for football and soccer is the test site and Turface®, a calcined clay product is used. States that it is too early in the research project to determine if Turface® will improve grass under heavy traffic. Adds that Turface-treated plots appear to dry faster, make a better playing surface when soil becomes exposed, and are easier to penetrate. |
