Turf Feeding Systems and Efficient Irrigation

摘要

The future of agriculture and all areas of agronomy are to bring nature back into the process of growing and managing plants. Just like the medical industry is promoting a healthy body, making it more resistant to disease, healthy soil is an important foundation for a healthy plant. For example, sustainable soils are the foundation for a sustainable golf course on any landscape. The health of the soil is the most important factor for healthy plants and is an efficient management program for any golf course. Many superintendents and agronomists do soil tests to determine what the soil has and what must be added, but few test the soil's health with a bioassay. This will evaluate the biology and biodiversity of the soil, as well as determining any possible pathogens.
