Irrigation Water Analysis

The quality of irrigation water plays a crucial role in the health and performance of both turfgrass and soil. Nuturf’s Irrigation Suitability Analysis provides turf managers with a clear understanding of the chemical composition and suitability of their irrigation water source, helping prevent long-term issues related to water quality.

Irrigation water can vary greatly in quality, and every water source has distinct characteristics that may impact soil structure, nutrient availability, and plant health, sometimes positively, but often negatively. Poor-quality water can contribute to salinity build-up, nutrient imbalances, soil compaction, or toxicity issues that degrade turf quality over time.

Nuturf’s Irrigation Water Analysis identifies potential risks early, allowing turf professionals to make informed decisions about water treatment, soil management, and fertiliser programs. By understanding the properties of your irrigation water, such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), sodium levels, and bicarbonates, you can proactively manage issues before they compromise your turf or soil profile.

Whether you're managing a golf course, race track, sportsfield or council parkland, knowing your water is just as important as knowing your soil and plant tissue. Nuturf’s expert agronomists will help interpret the results and recommend corrective actions tailored to your specific site conditions.
