The Turfgrass Water Conservation Alliance

10/10/2016 - By Gregory Nicoll

After another year of extreme heat and little rainfall, water conservation is a leading topic not only among Turfgrass Professionals, but it’s also common conversation among many in society.

"Drought" is a common term across the country, however, new regions are feeling the impact of Mother Nature’s wrath especially as it relates to cool season variety turfgrass. On a recent visit to the Pacific Northwest, I was introduced to some extraordinary research lead by the Turfgrass Water Conservation Alliance, or TWCA.

Currently, drought-tolerant species can maintain active growth with 30% less water than conventional cool season grasses and research is showing that that tolerance could eventually be 50%!

Después de otro ano de caliente extremo y poca lluvia, la conservación de agua es el mayor tópico no solo entre los Profesionales de Césped, pero es también común conservación entre muchas sociedades.

“Sequia” es una terminología común a través de todo el país, mas sin embargo, las nuevas regiones están sintiendo el impacto de la ira de madre naturaleza especialmente en lo que se relaciona a la época de frio de césped. En una visita reciente al Noreste del Pacifico, se me presentaron a un estudio extraordinario dirigido por la Alianza de Conservación de Agua, o TWCA.

Actualmente, especies de tolerante de sequía puede mantener crecimiento active con 30% menos aguas que época convencional de césped y el estudio muestra que la tolerancia puede eventualmente ser 50%.
