Imants Recycling Dresser provides immediate ROI for turfgrass managers
The Imants Recycling Dresser is a heavy-duty aerator and root zone recycler. The Recycling Dresser aerates vertically and horizontally, removes the underlying soil from the root zone, and redistributes soil as a topdressing across the playing surface. This vertical and horizontal aeration mitigates layering and compaction, increases biological activity, and allows for better utilization of existing fertilizers in the soil. The Recycling Dresser reduces the amount of new topdressing required, thus saving labor and material costs as well as promoting sustainable maintenance. The Recycling Dresser is best used on loamy to sandy soils.

Poor Water Quality and Soil Testing: President's Message Fall 2021
September 15th is a day that is of significant value. One, it is my birthday, which as the years go by, has more significant value it seems. The date was of agronomic significance when I was a golf course superintendent growing Bentgrass here in the Southeast. It was the date that I always circled on my calendar as the day I thought we could see the light at the end of the tunnel after a long season. We always sat down as a team and discussed what did we need to do to recover and make sure we were setting ourselves up for a successful season next year.
