The Envu Golf team introduced Resilia during the 2023 GCSAA Conference and Trade Show. The root health solution will keep turf strong by protecting roots from the complex turf diseases that lurk below the surface.
“Golf course superintendents know the importance of healthy roots, and they need a solution to protect them,” said Jesse Benelli, Green Solutions Team specialist for Envu. “Envu is proud to lead the industry and help superintendents reach their full potential by introducing Resilia root health solution.”
Many turf diseases lurking below the surface, including Pythium root rot, fairy ring, summer patch, pathogenic nematodes and take-all root rot, can destroy greens and fairways in short order. Meanwhile, the dynamic nature of a root system makes it difficult for superintendents to diagnose and manage the many diseases and pests damaging their roots.
Resilia root health solution uses a unique combination of three unique active ingredients to control all major soilborne pathogens for up to 28 days and suppress root-damaging nematode populations. With the broad-spectrum control provided, roots can thrive and reach their full potential.
Resilia root health solution is easy to apply and works well in tandem with Stressgard fungicides. Stressgard fungicides improve plant health above ground by providing outstanding disease control and boosting photosynthesis.
“No single product on the market today offers simultaneous control of patch diseases, Pythium diseases, and suppression of pathogenic nematodes,” Benelli said. “That is why we are really looking forward to bringing Resilia root health solution to superintendents later this year. It will help minimize risk for superintendents, so they can focus on other parts of their day knowing roots will be more protected.”
Envu anticipates that Resilia root health solution will be commercially available later in 2023.
