Clubs that exercises sport on natural turf surfaces desire a high-quality playing surface. The quality of the pitch depends on the way it is constructed and maintained which in its turn depends on the allocated budget.

Read this great story on how the TerraCottem soil conditioning technology found its way on the Australian market. Russell JAmes and Tarrant Baguley are telling the tale filled with international origins, a fair dose of initial disbelief, crushing periods of drought and many happy endings.

"A visitor to a garden sees the successes, usually. The gardener remembers mistakes and losses, some for a long time, and imagines the garden in a year, and in an unimaginable future."
