The majority of diseases diagnosed on greens are root diseases. And they are a threat because often the damage is already done by the time symptoms appear.
Resilia root health solution, the newest innovation from Envu, is available in states where it is registered. The Resilia root health solution protects roots from destructive soil-borne pathogens for up to 21 days and most up to 28 days, allowing the opportunity for a more robust root system.
"The key to healthy turf starts below the surface," Mark Brotherton, product manager, Envu Turf & Ornamentals, said in a news release. "With that foundational goal in mind, Envu developed Resilia root health solution, the first, all-in-one root health solution that was exclusively developed for soilborne root disease control. Golf course superintendents can rest easy knowing their roots are protected when they incorporate Resilia root health solution into their plant protection program."
Resilia has proven to be effective at controlling soil-borne pathogens that cause diseases such as Pythium root rot, fairy ring and summer patch, as well as nematode damage.
"Resilia root health solution is the only product that offers simultaneous control of patch diseases, Pythium diseases and suppression of pathogenic nematodes," said Jesse Benelli, Ph.D., Green Solutions Team specialist, Envu. "The solution is not meant to be a total replacement for other products, but it can integrate seamlessly into any program as a preventative maintenance application."
Resilia is registered for use in the following states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
