Major Challenges: 

· Eliminate Soil Hardness—thus avoiding common ground contact injuries for players.

· Increase Water Infiltration and Drainage—Evaporation from compacted soil is high.

· Reduce  Irrigation Water

· Reduce hazards from toxic chemicals

Biologic Turf & Soil Program will assist in meeting those challenges, by

 

· Eliminating soil compaction

· Building the soil’s water-holding capacity

· Irrigation and/or rain will soak in quicker and last longer

· Reducing or eliminating toxic chemical inputs when maintaining premium turf

Biologic Turf & Soil is a unique nutritional program drawn from humic and soil science, microbiology and fertilizer technology.  It builds the ideal soil structure and maintains high quality turf.

Programs available include Strategic Broadcast, Foliar, and Irrigation Programs—all will be designed to result in optimum soil and turf quality.

Together with WaterBuff, and used in a co-ordinated management program, Biologic Turf and Soil Program will assist turf recovery from disease and insects.

WaterBuff  will promote strong turf growth, even with poor quality water, and will reduce irrigation by optimizing plant water up-take.  It can prevent build-up of salts and bi-carbonates in the soil profile, and prevents/reduces mineralized crusts and sale in irrigation lines.

You will be surprised by the results—

Intensive results at AAMI Stadium

Intensive BioLogic Treatment produced the most impressive root growth and tillering ever seen at AAMI stadium. Divots have decreased markedly, softness and spring increased and turf now recovers within hours of heavy training.
