A professional book for chemical and pesticide applications in turf and landscapes. The book will start with a history of chemical and pesticide use in this industry and follow the technological progression that has occurred through the 20th century to the present. The book covers the basic principles and properties of chemicals and pesticides as well as the interpretation of the often detailed technical information that accompanies this material. Practical discussions of the three primary pesticide groups, herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, will be supplemented with a chapter on additional chemicals used in the industry. The body of the text will be summed up through detailed but practical discussions of proper application strategies and strategies for responsible chemical use and pest management. Turfgrass Chemicals and Pesticides will offer both sufficient background for the reader to understand the basis for using chemicals and pesticides in turf and landscape and the relevant detail needed to execute the application from start to finish. The book will also provide the rationale for and the information needed to develop pest control and chemical management strategies for immediate use in the turf and landscape industry. A great resource for professionals in lawn care and maintenance; for golf course superintendents; or professional landscape designers.

Vital for a game of cricket or golf and enjoyable when picnicking in the park, turfgrass provides a wide range of aesthetic and recreational benefits. However, managed turfgrass is prone to damaging outbreaks of insects and mites. Pest Management of Turfgrass for Sport and Recreation is the first comprehensive work on the plant-eating insects and mites of the grass and non-grass species currently maintained as ornamental lawns and turfgrass playing surfaces throughout Australia, the South Pacific and South-East Asia. This book provides an industry reference for the identification of pests affecting the roots, stems and leaves of turfgrass and control of these species through integrated pest management. It contains information on the distribution, ecology and biology of pests and how to monitor them. The integrated pest management approach outlined in the book includes natural environmental controls, beneficial and predatory species of arthropods, resistant cultivars and insecticidal and miticidal pesticides. Pest Management of Turfgrass for Sport and Recreation is an essential manual for managers of sportsgrounds, bowling greens, lawn tennis courts, golf courses, racecourses, ornamental landscapes, amenity parklands, public reserves and turfgrass production farms.

Volatile loss rates of pesticides from turfgrass were measured using the Backward-Time Lagrangian Stochastic Dispersion model (Flesch et al., 1995). Solar radiation, ambient temperature, surface temperature, relative humidity, wind direction, and wind speed were monitored continuously. Growth regulator was applied to the turf plot several days before pesticide application to maintain a constant grass height and aerodynamic roughness length during the experiment. No irrigation occurred following application. Pesticides were applied as mixtures to allow direct comparison of evaporative loss. Mixtures studied were chlorpyrifos + triadimefon + ethofumesate and triclopyr (acetic acid) + propiconazole + cyfluthurin. Airborne flux estimates correlated with temperature, solar radiation, wind speed, time, and vapor pressure of the active ingredient. A log vapor pressure vs. 1/Temperature (K) relationship was observed between flux and surface temperature over a single day for most pesticides. An exponential attenuation of flux was observed over a period of several days and correlated with attenuation of dislodgeable surface residues for two of the pesticides. A fugacity-based model for predicting initial evaporative loss rates from turf grass is presented. Input parameters include pesticide vapor pressure, molecular diffusion coefficient, surface temperature, wind speed profile, atmospheric stability, surface roughness, and average upwind fetch. The GC retention method (Jensen, 1966) was used to estimate pesticide vapor pressures over an environmentally relevant temperature range. The model predicts fluxes that are an order of magnitude greater than measured values. This bias may be due, in part, to deviation from the assumption of pesticide saturated vapor density at the foliar surface. In addition, sensitivity analysis suggests improved estimates of leaf surface temperature and pesticide vapor pressures have the greatest potential to improve model performance.

So you're ready to spread some fertilizer or perhaps spray some pesticide. Are you using the right chemical for the job? Are you using it in the right way? Are you breaking any environmental regulations? The knowledge level required of turf and agricultural managers when applying chemicals to a variety of sites today is constantly rising. But this book can help you meet the challenge. Written in non-technical language for the practicing manager, it conveys a basic understanding and working knowledge of fundamental chemical properties that relate to daily turfgrass and agricultural management. It gives you the practical knowledge you need to successfully and safely tackle the problem at hand. Complete, up-to-date information provided by two experts in the field cover the subject from A to Z, including new products, regulations, and management techniques.
