Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the benefits of turfgrasses in terms of improving soil and erosion control. "Turfgrass roots penetrate into the soil and hold particles so that they are not lost by wind and water erosion...roots also loosen the soil and add organic matter, both of which increase soil permeability so there is less water runoff." |
