Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the management of high-traffic athletic fields, stating that "high traffic, if not managed effectively, can impact both the soil and the turf through direct wear of turfgrass plants and soil compaction at the surface." Addresses fertilization and soil compaction and reports that "reasonable use, combined with good cultural practices will help ensure playable safe fields all year." |
