Windsor. Less clean water to grow turf

Millers Turf Supplies has introduced two new grasses into Australia which can be watered with salt, grey or effluent water, as a means of reducing the amount of clean water to grow turf. The 45-year-old family company, which grows 120 hectares of turf, at Wilberforce, need 11 mega-litres of water per 0.4 hectares annually. The company has also introduced environmental practice standards with its catchment ponds. “We felt there was a need on how to establish and maintain catchment ponds and run-off,” Greg Miller said in the Penrith Press.
