Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the benefits of testing and evaluating new products and equipment at one's own site. Lists some ideas to consider while testing the products such as: "Does the product really do what it claims to do?", "Does the product or practice work better than what we are doing now?", "What rates will maximize efficacy and reduce potential discoloration to desirable turf?", "Can the product be tank mixed with other materials?", and "Does it have an acceptable margin of safety if overapplied?" |
