Abstract:
An improved mineral oil is useful in protecting sod during the harvesting, transporting, and reestablishment of the sod. The improved mineral oil mimics the cuticular wax of the sod plant. It is applied to a plot of sod one (1) or more times before harvesting the sod so that the improved mineral oil is generally aborbed by the sod plants. A solution including the improved mineral oil and copper pigment in water with an emulsifier may be used. Methods for protecting sod during the harvesting, transporting, and reestablishment of the sod using of the improved mineral oil are described.
