Abstract/Contents:Overviews various methods of disease, pest, weed and insect control. Reports that "considerable progress has been made in the matter of controlling diseases." Evaluates disease such as Pythium aphanidermatum, snow mold, and copper spot. Describes several field tests on weed control, including crabgrass and Poa annua. Notes that "maleic hydrazide has found considerable use in turf management," stating that "the use of maleic hydrazide may be a first step in the killing out of rhizomatous perennial species, such as Bermudagrass." Mentions that "chlordane continues to be the most used insecticide in turf."
