Sports fields are the most valuable turfgrass in communities across America
Fertigation is a great tool for sports fields. It can be turned up at an increased rate to push the grass growth before the season and carry the growth through the season of play. It can grow thick dense grass that is safe to play on. Thick and dense grass will cushion the player and reduce player injury.
Fertigation is the fastest way to recover damaged areas from overplay. Field recovery is important to any coach. Today many sports fields have irrigation zones at high use areas, like the center of a football field and soccer goal mouths that are damaged often. Fertigation can be used to double or triple the irrigation and fertilizer rates to those damaged areas to bring the grass back to playable condition very fast.
Fertigation can help reduce water, fertilizer and chemical use by 50% while maintaining reasonable quality. Fertigation can lightly apply maintenance fertilizer, soil conditioners to promote root growth and Probiotic biology to reduce soil compaction. This will keep the field healthy and ready for the next season.
We offer five models for sports fields. Our L500 and L600 work well on a single field or multi-fields up to 10 acres, and our L750 and L1000 are designed for field complexes from 15 to over 80 acres.
