Warm Season Turfgrass Management (Hardcover)

The management of warm-season turfgrasses is important to golfcourse superintendents, sports turf managers, lawn care professionals, and educators. These professionals are continuously introducing new cultivars and seeking new species with qualities such as drought resistance and salt tolerance. As environmental concerns increase, the turfgrass industry will have to be more selective of species and cultivars for location, use, and management qualities. This book presents the first comprehensive treatment of all warm-season turgrasses. It also provides information on soil salinity; irrigation and water management, and construction and irrigation in Southern climates.
