This is some work that we’ve done on how surfactants increase water use efficiency in turfgrass, which has been published in The European Turfgrass Society Conference Proceedings. #surfactants #turfgrass #phdlife #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Proud of my old PhD supervisor & Myerscough colleague on fire with his passion for turf/soil science at Turf Science Live. Talking soil biology and a novel take on enhancing it for turf health.

Looking forward 2 this ⬇️, 2 hear Darren Anderson MG + his great work at Bromborough. But if U R interested in how we can measure soil biology and what the results can tell us, I will be sharing some data +looking @ results from 2 microbiome studies for turf.
