QUALITY CULTIVARS DELIVERING OUTSTANDING RESULTS

New and improved RPR cultivar Barlibro offers a more aggressive spreading growth habit with increasedstolon numbers and speed of production in UK tests compared to previous RPR varieties.

Barchristalla and Barorlando offer a combination of performance, wear tolerance and genetic colour thatare unparalleled amongst their rivals. They also have proven tolerance to Drechslera Leaf Spot in the FrenchListings (Leaf Spot is not assessed in the UK testing system for Turfgrass Seed).

RPR STADIUM DELIVERS ON FOUR KEY TRAITS:

ULTIMATE WEAR TOLERANCEThe mixture and its component parts have been extensively trialled under intense wear pressure at our Cropvale Research Station inthe UK. Objective data recording over two years conclusively proves the blends performance with regard to tolerance.

CAMERA READY COLOUROur innovative new mixture delivers darker, more camera friendly colour far superior to any other premium mixture on the marketwith excellent colour in both autumn an winter.

DISEASE TOLERANCELeaf Spot is the biggest disease issue in the UK stadium environment. Reliable independent data from the French Turfgrass Listshows that RPR STADIUM offers superior tolerance compared to competitor mixtures

FAST RECOVERY

RPR breeding is focused on “recovery” or “regeneration” during wear pressure. RPR’s possess an unparalleled capacity torecover in that they can produce determinate stlons and entirely new plants to counteract the effect of intense wear or otherturf damage.

The new variety BARLIBRO is the next generation of these distinctive cultivars offering superiorPerformance with respect to the speed and aggression of its stoloniferous growth

I was keen to review the grass seed selection when I arrived at Durham. After trying various options during the season we carried out our main renovationusing Barenbrug seed supplied through local distributor Turfcare Specialists Ltd.

“The perennial ryegrass cultivars we choose needed to germinate and establish quickly, but also offer high shoot densityand very fine leaves. After consulting with Dave Greenshields, Barenbrug’s research and development manager, weopted for a tailor- made blend featuring a new variety called Barolympic, which has been the top performer in recentBSPB trials at Bingley.

“Our renovations went very well, helped by good autumn conditions, and the square has gone into winter with excellentgrass cover. I hope the mix will continue to perform during spring and into the playing season. I was pleased to learnthat the new BAR EXTREME blend for 2016 will now contain all three of the cultivars we have trialled and I lookforward to continued support from Barenbrug and Turfcare in the future.”

Researchers estimate that 50% of Nitrogen appliedis lost to the environment!

ProloNgTM MANAGES NITROGEN MAKING IT MOREAVAILABLE TO THE PLANT

ProloNgTM shields ammonium and urea which means:NO LEACHING, NO FLUSHES OF GROWTH

andNO LOSS of NITROGEN TO THE ATMOSPHERE

Many times over, our customers have reported healthier swards of better colour;this is due to the fact that when nitrogen is applied, at whatever time of year, withProloNg™ technology the plant will only assimilate its nitrogen requirements in theform of ammonium. The plant therefore has enough, but not too much nitrogen and isstronger, sturdier , healthier, less susceptible to damage (physical or disease pressure)and of improved appearance.

SLOW RELEASE FERTILISERS WITH METHYLENE UREA

Methylene Urea (MU) on the other hand is an extremely safe way of feeding nitrogen to plants offering a truly controlledrelease pattern over a period of weeks. The mineralization of MU nitrogen to ammonium depends on the soil micro-biology.Our MU, rather than inhibiting the activity of the microbes, improves the natural fertility, increasing and sustaining thepopulation of beneficial micro- organisms.The environmental conditions (temperature & moisture) that affect the growth and activity of the grass plant also regulate theactivityof the micro-organisms. This means that the MU nitrogen is made available at the time when the grass plant most requires itfor optimal root and shoot development.

· Methylene Urea (MU) reduces the loss of available nitrogen for plants· Reduces potential of nitrate ground water pollution· Increases natural soil/root zone fertility (source of organic carbon)· Reduces phytotoxicity and scorch potential· Rapid root development· Long lasting nitrogen up to 24 weeks· Nitrogen availability is synchronized with plant demand· Less nitrogen is lost to leaching and volatilisation, which reduces environmental impact· Predictable results for healthy, green grass plants· This range complements our ProloNg™ range of nitrogen efficient fertilisers· Very Low Salt Index

Whatever type of sporting activity, efficient and effectivedrainage is essential in maintaining a good quality playingsurface.

Loss of use due to water logging or damage to the surfacecan result in cancellation of games, dissatisfied sportsmen,lost fixtures as well as potential financial losses.

An efficient drainage system will eliminate most of theproblems, reduce compaction and allow easier and moreeffective maintenance.

Improved drainage will result in better soil structure, ahealthier sward and ultimately a better playing surface.

DRAINAGE SOLUTIONS

Turfcare Specialists understand pressures on greenkeepers and groundsmen to provide high quality playingsurfaces all year round. We use our experience and technical knowledge to provide our customers with solutionswith their specific needs in mind.

Our award winning Supertrencher+ is ideal forinstalling land drainage pipes and otherunderground services such as cables on sportsfields and any other turf areas, especially whereminimum surface damage is demanded.Our Supertrencher+’s digging wheel, in line withthe centre of the tractor, excavates soil from thetrench and this excavated soil is thrown into a largeaperture at the front of the machine, and thenelevated via two conveyors into a trailer or dumperrunning alongside. You are left with a clean trenchwhich is ready for laying piping or any otherservice required. The Supertrencher+’s conveyormounting point is hinged so that it can be turnedthrough 90° to lay alongside the body of themachine for transport. Moving the conveyor to thetransport position opens up a massive inspectionport should the need arise to look inside thehousing. Conveyor height and depth of trench areadjusted hydraulically.

NEW!DEEP CLEANING AND DE-COMPACTION SERVICE

FORARTIFICIAL SURFACES

Correctly maintaining your artificial turf will ensure moreconsistency with regards to the surfaces playing characteristics aswell as its life expectancy. A synthetic sports pitch deep-clean to theinfill is a vital contribution to achieving the success of this. A deep-clean to infill of sports surfaces removes contamination, dirt and mudfrom the pile of artificial grass. This process needs to be carriedout to improve drainage and porosity to the flooring. Indications thatyour artificial grass pitch might need a thorough clean include thesand filled or 3G pitch holding water and puddling leaving the ‘allweather pitch’ facility unusable. It is even possible in winter andcolder months that the water on the flooring rubber infill syntheticturf could freeze over leaving the artificial turf sports facility lookinglike an ice rink and making it unsafe to use.

Regular deep cleaning of a synthetic grass pitch helps to keep thecarpet and the infill clear of dirt and contaminants to ensure a safeplaying environment.

A deep clean for an artificial sports surface involves de-compactingthe infill also lifting and opening the carpets pile and removing someof the contaminated sand from the surface. The deep cleaningmaintenance process then involves redistributing the syntheticspitch's infill evenly over the entire artificial sports surface.

A deep-clean allows usage of an all weather sports facility all yearround.

Don’t risk loosing evening and weekend bookings. A deep-clean willhelp maintain the pitches quality.

A deep clean will ensure maximum use of an all weather pitch and athorough clean will give the surface the best opportunity to be freedraining and prevent the sport surface holding water.

TAKE THATCH CONTROL TO ACOMPLETELY NEW LEVEL

SAND INJECTIONThe Graden Contour Sand Injection is ascarifier/aerator with the ability to scarify to any depthfrom 1mm to 40mm, whilst simultaneously backfillingthe grooves with either sand or a combination of sandand seed. Independent STRI trials have shown that thisis the most effective machine for removing thatchwhich is one of the biggest problems for greenkeepersall over the world.The Graden Contour Sand Injection grooves areimmediately filled right to the surface. This means thatthe surface never loses its firmness, there is no collapseof the grooves, and disruption to play is kept to anabsolute minimum. Greens be are back in play withinan hour and surface disruption is minimal.

At present, the Graden Contour Sand Injection comes with aBrowntop Bent seeder attachment. The seeder attachmentdisperses the seed at whatever rate the operator requires as itis set up with an easy to adjust flow rate to suit individualneeds.

It is a particularly efficient way of overseeding as it placesthe seed directly into the sand filled grooves made by themachine. In other words, it places the seed into a perfectgrowth medium.

This guarantees virtually 100% germination rates andprovides the seedlings with the perfect start for extremelyrapid, strong, growth and more importantly, long termestablishment. This means a significant saving on the amountof seed used as there is virtually no wastage.

Independent STRI trials and user trials prove that overseedingresults using the attachment are incredibly successful andusers rate it as the best weapon in the greenkeeping armourywhen faced with the ongoing battle of transition.

Our revolution in water management for all amenity turf, AquaEasy™ offers both soil penetrant qualities and the ability toaid water holding capacity, thereby improving water movement through the root zone and improving water distributionwithin the root zone.AquaEasy™ is an important and valuable water management tool suitable for use in all root zones. This surfactant penetrantand block co-polymer new ‘generation technology’ helps to prevent or dispatch with dry patch, reduce water related plantstress, reduce the requirement for irrigation and ensure even water distribution throughout any root zone.

Research worldwide has shown the initial cause of dry patch is the build-up of naturally produced waxes and lipids around thesand/soil particles. When these coated sand/soil particles dry out they become hydrophobic (water-repellent) and the root zoneis unable to hold water. Dry patch usually appears during periods of dry weather as small isolated patches of thin,stressed water repellent turf. The symptoms can affect all turf grass species but initially are more apparent on the shallowerrooted species i.e. annual meadow grass where total die back of the plant can occur very quickly.Beneath the surface in these affected areas the soil is extremely dry and will not easily re-wet. Research in the UK has shownthat the build-up of waxes and lipids around the sand/soil particles that cause dry patch are concentrated at the soil thatchinterface and this area is referred to as the hydrophobic zone.

AquaEasy™ offers the following benefits:· Improves water penetration· Improves water distribution· Helps to prevent dry patch or helps to overcome dry patch· Reduces water related plant stress· Reduces the requirement for irrigation· Effectively disperses dew & guttation· Encourages a healthy balance of air & water in the root zone· Provides an improved environment for healthy root growth

WORM CONTROL

CARBENDAZIM IS NO MORE AFTER AUGUST 2017!SO WHAT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO CONTROL WORMS?

ANGUS DOWNCASTA nutrient based, non chemical approach to suppressing worm casts.

Chemicals used in today's professional turf care industry must have minimal residual effect. It's the grass professional's objectiveto deter rather than kill worms in the soil.

Carbendazim is a fungicide but when used on turf to control disease the side effect causes worms being deterred from enteringinto treated soil. Carbendazim does not kill worms. Studies show that Carbendazim disrupts human and animal hormones.

Carbendazim is banned in the United States and now from August next year it will be banned in the UK too.

THERE MUST BE ANOTHER WAY TO SUPPRESS WORMS! NOW THERE IS!Downcast is a non-pesticidal nutrient based product that increases turf health and suppresses worm activity,

deterring worm casts at the same time.Downcast is a sulphur based product containing small amounts of nitrogen and iron, thus providing good

green-up without grass growth or growth promotion.

Downcast is a combination of nutrient materials that have been clearly shown to reduce worm-cast levelson all sports turf .

Permanent green pigment - Improvesaesthetics of dormant/stressed turf - Produces uniform appearance to turf - Lasts 10 – 14 weeks.Application rate: 1 L/100m2 Water rate: 15 – 20 L/100m2

EVOQUE FUNGICIDE IMPROVER

Evoque is a fungicide adjuvant system which can also be used in mixtures with herbicides, insecticides, moss killers & micro-nutrients. It enhances how spray droplets can penetrate the leaf surface & will also act as a spreader across the leaf surface.It will stop droplets bouncing or running off the leaf tissue, as they will stick to the surface & then start to spread out – coveringthe whole leaf. Getting excellent coverage is vital when treating diseases.Evoque can improve control by over 20% when compared to just using a fungicide on its own. This is done by drawing thechemical into the plant using a unique uptake agent.While Evoque is mainly used with fungicides, we have seen some very good results when used to penetrate thick layers of mossin grass.ACTIVATE G HERBICIDE ENHANCER

Activate-G has been specially formulated to combine with the active ingredient of weed killers to improve their uptake into theplant. This is done in two ways, firstly by stopping the pesticide ‘locking up’ when used in areas of hard water, & secondly byhelping the chemical absorb into the plant using its unique ‘uptake system’. Using Activate-G stops any loss of active ingredientas it is drawn into the plant rather than sitting on the surface & evaporating or running off.Mixing Activate-G with herbicides such as glyphosate & grassland products has significantly enhanced the speed &effectiveness of the kill. Typically, adding in this product sped up herbicides by 7-10 days & helped reduce the time taken forthe herbicide to dry on the leaf by several hours. This can be particularly helpful in times of poor weather conditions. In short,adding Activate-G enhances the effect of herbicides by around 25%.AQUA TICK

Aqua Tick™ is a unique adjuvant designed to adjust the quality of water in the spray tank and maximise the efficiency andeffectiveness of chemical sprays .It improves pesticide performance by buffering the pH to a mildly acidic level to maximisealkaline hydrolysis and improve uptake by the plant. It will also bind with dissolved salts in hard water that can adhere topesticide molecules and slow down or even prevent uptake to the chemical to the plant. It is used to help aid the effectiveness ofcertain weed killers such as glyphosate.NO FOAM

No-Foam is a superior concentration of de-foaming agents formulated to give fast, effective and economical control of foamingduring spray tankfilling. Foaming can considerably slow down the filling process, lead to loss of product and leave residues on the tank walls.SPRAYER CLEANER & DE-CONTAMINANT

Tank & Equipment Cleaner® is a specially formulated sprayer cleaner which removes pesticide deposits and other debris,including oily substances, from tanks, booms, hoses, filters and nozzles. To avoid subsequent damage to other crops, all traces ofherbicides must be removed from spraying equipment immediately after spraying.Simply finish spraying and wash out with water as normal. Then mix the required volume of Tank & Equipment Cleaner® intothe tank with clean water and agitate. Then spray over a designated area which hasn’t been treated, then store the sprayer away.
