Made our final applications using the @Ecorobotix_Turf ALBA/ARA prototype to compare broadcast and targeted applications for dallisgrass control. Looking forward to analyzing the control and cost savings between methods and herbicide treatments!

I am looking for a motivated student to pursue a Ph.D. in Turfgrass Science at the Texas A&M AgriLife Center at Dallas. We have cool projects on zoysiagrass putting-green management, soil amendments, and traffic tolerance. Contact me if you are interested [email protected]

Demo of Ecorobotix prototype machine-vision sprayer at the Independence Golf Course Turfgrass Research Classic and Field Day hosted by Virginia Tech and the Virginia Golf Course Superintendents Association. Our research shows 75 to over 90% reductions in herbicide use with this machine. Enhanced turf safety allows for more aggressive treatments and better weed resistance management. More to come!

First pass on a green with the targeted sprayer. Spot treating Poa with methiozolin. This is a green that wasn’t covered but we also have two reps of this study on a green just uncovered this past weekend—it’s still pretty green and a lot more Poa. @willlber @VTTurfweeds

Easy to spot the zoysiagrass contamination on this bermudagrass research green by the lack of annual bluegrass. Turfgrass selection can be the foundation to a good weed control program.
