Turf Science Live: Physiological Effects of Brushing
Dr. Karl Danneberger presents the first year results of the USGA sponsored brush study. Brushing is a common cultural practice on greens height turfgrass but the introduction of more aggressive techniques or new equipment may be leading to visible and non-visible damage during stressful times of the year. The objective of this study is to quantify fluctuations in physiological benefits or stress on greens height creeping bent grass due to physical abrasion throughout a full season.
Turf Science Live is an exciting event showcasing the latest research and technological innovations in turf agronomy. Turf Science Live is a practical hands-on opportunity to interact with leading specialists in many aspects of turf management that will demonstrate techniques that can be used to improve conditions at your course.
