Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024
This unit applies to the application of extensive horticultural knowledge and a broad range of horticultural skills. Monitoring is normally done within routines, methods and procedures where some discretion and judgement is required in the selection of equipment and materials, organisation of work, services, actions, and the achievement of outcomes within time and budgetary constraints.
This unit covers the process of monitoring the health and condition of high performance sports turf playing surfaces and defines the standard required to: inspect and report on the condition of turfed surfaces; assess turf health; perform soil sampling and analyse results; identify deficiencies and diseases in turf; prepare turf maintenance recommendations according to the playing requirements and desired objectives of the enterprise.
