Using #OM246 test results to get net organic material accumulation rate
When you know the rate at which organic material is accumulating in the rootzone, you can adjust sand topdressing rates with more precision. You can also start to check how any changes in maintenance can have an effect on the accumulation rate.

The Shiny app to calculate the accumulation rate is: https://asianturfgrass.shinyapps.io/om246/
