Paper Summary

Turfgrass is effective for controlling soil erosion and capturing sediment. A new national facility in Australia was built to showcase turf as a solution for erosion control. The facility compares turf with other products like silt fencing and hydro-seeding. The construction of the facility faced challenges but is now a valuable tool for promoting turfgrass in erosion control.
