Data presented as average Microdochium patch across trial plots from November 2007 – March 2009.

A trial at the STRI over a 17-month period showed that a H2Pro Conserve/H2Pro Maximise wetting agent programme reduced disease pressure by 24%.

H2Pro Programme For Disease ReductionDisease ManagementSoil moisture management can play a pivotal role in disease management. By drying out the soil surface but maintaining moisture in the rootzone for healthy plant growth, conditions are less conducive to disease and the plant is more resilient to environmental stresses, including disease attack.

Nemasys G Controls Chafer grubs

Eggs are laid in late August and hatch within two weeks. The young start feeding immediately. Nemasys J should be applied and watered into the turf about two weeks after the adult Crane Fly have been seen. This is usually from August to September, which is the best time to apply nematodes, as the soil temperature is around 12°C.

The eggs of the Chafer beetle hatch and begin feeding on the roots of the grass plant from July until late September. They then burrow deep into the ground, lying dormant under the soil until spring when they move to the surface and emerge as beetles, and so the cycle repeats.

4. Dense, well established patches of Ryegrass may require a programme of two or three applications to achieve full control.

5. Follow-up Rescue treatments on an annual basis may be required to control new seedling re-infestation.

6. Rescue can be applied with conventional golf course or bowling green sprayer (including knapsack).

7. Spray Rescue in 250 - 500 litres of water per hectare, ensure good coverage but avoid over-wetting.

Roundup ProBio herbicide controls most emerged grasses and broad-leaved weeds. It is important that all weeds are at the correct growth stage when treated, otherwise some re-growth may occur and this will need re-treatment. Apply Roundup ProBio herbicide once grasses and broad-leaved weeds have emerged and they have actively-growing green leaves.



Directions For Use1. Roundup ProBio is recommended for control of

annual and perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds in non-crop areas, for cleaning up weedy ground prior to planting or sowing and for aquatic weed control. Roundup ProBio may also be used as a directed spray in ornamental plantings, orchards and for spot treating weeds in grassland. Roundup ProBio must be targeted only at weed growth on hard surfaces such as roadsides and paths (see label for details).

2. DO NOT MIX, STORE OR APPLY ROUNDUP PROBIO IN GALVANISED OR UNLINED STEEL CONTAINERS OR SPRAY TANKS.

3. DO NOT leave spray mixtures in tanks for long periods and make sure tanks are WELL VENTED.

4. Rainfast in 1 hour on annuals and Couch grasses, and in 4 hours on broad-leaved weeds and perennial grasses.

5. Do not spray onto weeds which are naturally senescent, or where growth is impaired by drought,

frost at or immediately after application, otherwise poor control may result.

6. Do not spray in windy conditions, as drift onto desired crops or vegetation can severely damage or destroy them.

7. Do not tank-mix Roundup ProBio with adjuvants,

Compatibility section. 8. Exclusion times: people, pets and wildlife need not

be kept out of treated areas. It is best not to walk in areas where the spray is still wet, as transfer to other vegetation may lead to unwanted damage to other foliage. Once the spray is dry, this cannot occur.

3. Measure the diameter of the cut face and calculate how many plugs to use from the application rate table.

4. deep and 13mm wide using an adapted drill to control the depth.

5. Space the holes no more than 6 - 8cm apart around the entire circumference of the stump.

6. Drill as close to the bark as possible, because the tree’s transport system is directly adjacent to the bark.

7. Insert Ecoplug Max plugs into each hole with the thicker end protruding outwards.

8. Using a hammer, drive the Ecoplug Max plug in completely so that its head seals the drilled hole, causing the plug to release the herbicide.

9. For best results, stump treatment should be done not more than 2 days after felling.

10. Do not use for any other purpose than treatment of freshly cut tree stumps.

Nutrient application from granular fertilizers

Nutrient Calculations

Nutrient application from granular fertilizersCalculation of amount of nutrient applied from declared analyses and treatment rate. The fertilizer declarations are always expressed as % weight by weight, with nutrients being declared in the oxide form in the UK.Therefore, a 14-5-10 fertilizer contains: 14% w/w N 5% w/w P2O5 10% w/w K2O

Granular fertilizersFor calculating nutrient inputs for granular fertilizer, use the following formula:Application rate (kg/ha) x (% nutrient/100) = kg nutrient/ha Example: 14-0-0 @ 35g/m² Convert application rate from g/m² to kg/ha (i.e. 35g/m² x10 = 350 kg/ha) Multiply product rate (kg/ha) by % N content (i.e. 14% N = 0.14) = kg N per ha (i.e. 350 x 0.14 = 49kg N/ha)

Liquid fertilizersIn order to calculate the nutrient inputs from Greenmaster Liquid fertilizers, you need to

particular product being used.

NK 1.23 High N 1.31 Spring & Summer 1.18 High K 1.18

STEP Liquid 1.15

For calculating nutrient inputs for liquid fertilizers, use the following formula:

x (% nutrient/100) = kg nutrient/ha Example: 12-4-6 @ 60 L/ha (SG = 1.18 kg/L) Convert application rate from L/ha to kg/ha (i.e. 60 L/ha 1.18 = 70.8 kg/ha) Multiply product rate (kg/ha) by % N content (i.e. 12% N = 0.12) = kg N per ha (i.e. 70.8 x 0.12 = 8.5kg N/ha)

Note: 35 per m² = 350kg per ha = 1 oz. per sq yd = 2.7 cwt per acreNote: 50kg per ha = 0.38 cwt per acre = 43lbs per acreNote: 1kg per ha = 0.86lbs per acre
