Soil biology for golf courses and sports turf

Heat, traffic and tight water budgets put turf under stress, and much of it starts in the root zone. Test Terrawell® on your course or field with us.

Why the root zone matters

Soil microorganisms break down organic matter, cycle nutrients and help build soil structure. Turf managers who look after soil biology are looking after the root zone.

Terrawell® Classic adds lactic acid bacteria to the soil as a liquid application. Terrawell® Granulate is a porous granule for spot work and planting.

  • Helps revive tired, compacted and depleted soil in the root zone.
  • Its microorganisms help break down organic material, such as clippings and old roots, so nutrients become available to the turf again.

How a pilot works

  1. Tell us about your site: turf type, soil, problem areas and water situation.
  2. Together with your team we choose a test area and a comparison area, and record the starting point with photos and, if you wish, soil tests.
  3. You apply Terrawell® as part of your normal maintenance program, with our support.
  4. We compare the test and comparison areas together.

Turf in the American West

Courses and fields from the Colorado Front Range to the Arizona desert deal with heat, wind, sandy or alkaline soils and tight water budgets. That is the ground Terrawell® is made for.

Golfclub Achensee, Austria

Golfclub Achensee in Tyrol applied Terrawell® Classic to a fairway with visible turf damage.

“You can see a clear difference – since applying Terrawell® Classic, root growth visibly begins even under difficult soil conditions.”
