In a free webinar, LCOs can learn about the importance of potassium to maintaining healthy turf.
Sponsored by Compass Minerals and presented by Lawn & Landscape, “Turf & K – Reviewing the Relationship,” will take place Dec. 10 at 12 p.m. EST.
Potassium is heralded as a nutrient critical for turfgrass stress tolerance – heat, cold, traffic, and water stress are all associated with potassium fertility. In this webinar, experts will discuss the role of potassium in plant physiology and cover the basics on understanding soil and tissue test interpretation for plant available potassium. They will also review the relevant scientific research on potassium and explain why many managers may be using potassium incorrectly.
Doug Soldat, Ph.D., and a professor in the department of soil science at the university of Wisconsin-Madison, will discuss the relationship between K and turfgrass, and why the nutrient is so vital to overall soil and plant health.
Mark Davis, Senior Agronomist at Compass Minerals will outline how LCOs can best use K in their agrnomoic programs, and share recent research on the nutrient’s use in turf.
