Turfgrass researchers at ZymeCO have developed and manufactured a proprietary sprayable enzyme now being offered as ThatchZyme to lawn care companies as an effective new solution for managing thatch in lawns.

From innovative origins to on-course applications, we go inside the ThatchZyme story with ZymeCO founder and CTO Dr. Tad Huber, vice president of sales and marketing Dr. Phil Dwyer, and legendary agronomist and industry search executive Armen Suny. What can enzymes do to improve golf and turf maintenance experiences? ZymeCO founder and CTO Dr. Tad Huber explains the experimentation that led to the development of ThatchZyme, a sprayable solution to help golf courses manage thatch. The discovery process included plenty of conversations with his father-in-law Armen Suny , a legendary and curious agronomist. Plus, ZymeCO vice president of sales and marketing Dr. Phil Dwyer joins Huber and Suny to reveal insights from the field. Topics covered on this episode include: ThatchZyme origins and innovation motivation Field observations Enzyme mechanism and design goals Market discovery Research & Development, portfolio expansion and positioning Application strategy and seasonal considerations Distribution and global reach All Golf Course Industry podcasts can be found on the Superintendent Radio Network page of popular distribution platforms.
