## Resource

Can water really become "wetter"? In this video, we explore the classic paper Soil Wetting Agents by Robert A. Moore (1959) and explain how wetting agents improve water infiltration, root development, and turfgrass performance. Discover why this pioneering research still influences modern turf management today. Paper: Soil Wetting AgentsAuthor: Robert A.
