Presented in Partnership with WinField United.

(1197-01) In the U.S. golf and sports turf markets there are approximately 200 soil surfactants available in the green industry. Turf practitioners are bombarded by product claims on water movement in soil and effects on turfgrass management practices. Products claim to push, pull, or drain water, or strip hydrophobic coatings from soil particles. Is this factual? We’ll review product formulations, clarify what soil surfactants can do so you can make informed decisions. Learn: differences between the soil surfactant chemical classes and their impacts on plants/soil biology/soils in the rootzone, utilizing soil surfactants for efficient water management, and the why, how, and when to apply soil surfactants.
