The huge chemical arsenal once available to turf managers for pest, weed and disease control has slowly but surely been restricted or regulated. As a result alternative methods have had to be sought and this text aims to liberate the modern turf manager from dependency on chemical treatments through suggestions that can be adapted to specific field types, climatic zones and desired appearance. The author offers safety for people and animals, as well as longevity for the land, without sacrificing the quality of the turf itself. * Written for turf managers who need to reduce or eliminate chemical pesticides and fertilisers in their turfgrass management processes
