Target Specialty Products, a provider of turf and ornamental solutions in the U.S. and Canada, is launching Turf Fuel MITIGATE, a product for turf professionals designed to condition high-performance turfgrass to tolerate extreme stress.
MITIGATE, is a product designed to protect finely maintained turf from various stress factors during the growing season. Containing 5% nitrogen, sea kelp, reacted sugars and the unique biostimulant group Templar, MITIGATE, prepares turf for intense stress.
“Turf Fuel products are developed to serve a specific purpose, provide exceptional performance and offer great value to turf professionals,” says Eric Miltner PhD., product development manager, at Target Specialty Products. “During University trials, MITIGATE, provided enhanced stress tolerance during the hottest times of summer as well as during the coolest and wettest times in winter.”
MITIGATE is the second product in the Turf Fuel portfolio that includes Templar technology. Templar was introduced as a component in Infinite in 2021.
Templar includes two active ingredients: a collection of amino acids and a unique phytochemical, Bio M. These ingredients optimize water use, improve stomatal efficiency and enhance energy production even under environmental stress. Bio M. offers potent antioxidant and stress-fighting properties, enabling turf to excel under UV damage, drought, and temperature fluctuations.
“Our product development process is centered around finding solutions for age old challenges our customers have. Providing new and innovative products and education, training and background around how our products work and apply in the real world is an important part of our Turf Fuel product launch process. We will continue introducing new products with the latest technologies available to solve our customers’ problems and offer several options to them,” says David Helt, president of Target Specialty Products.
