Modern Turf sod farm specializes in sports turf
8 Aug, 2009 By: Landscape Management Staff Athletic Turf NewsModern Turf is a sod farm in Rembert, SC and has a staff with several former golf superintendents whose experience gives them in-depth knowledge of sports turf.
Sports turf is different from even the highest traffic grasses. It needs to withstand incredible heat; wear and tear beyond the norm and it needs to have the resilience to bounce back almost immediately after use. It also needs to be free from pests, particularly nematodes, or weeds. Sports turf can be ruined from insects or weeds and because of the large area of sod needed, it can be particularly expensive to replace. Because of this potential cost, high-quality sports turf that protects against these issues can be difficult to find, and critical to budgets.
