New dealers Bobcat of Buffalo, Bobcat of Fort Wayne, Cubex, Ltd., Encon Equipment, Equipment Seekers, Good- fellow Corporation and Greenman Machinery Company, as well as existing Morbark industrial equipment dealer James River Equipment, became authorized dealers of Morbark tree care equipment, selling the company's heavy- duty Beever line of brush chippers, as well as Morbark stump grinders. New dealers Suffolk County Brake Service, Goodfellow Corporation and AfrEquip, as well as existing Morbark tree care dealers Alexander Equipment Company and Ness Turf Equipment, are now offi cial industrial equipment dealers, handling Morbark's complete line of recycling and forestry machines, including biomass chippers, Chiparvestors, fl ails and tub and horizontal grinders. Arborjet debuts NutriRoot Arborjet launched NutriRoot, a 2-part formula made up of a nutrient pack and water manager in one that can be used at planting or as maintenance to mature trees, shrubs, landscape plants, and turf. NutriRoot promotes root growth, reduces watering, improves transplant success, pro- tects transplants from drought stress and shock, and feeds roots all season long. Unlike most products on the market that are purely nutrient-based or just a standalone water management product, NutriRoot combines these two elements into one easy and effective treatment. In fact, in fi eld trials root mass was doubled on plants treated with NutriRoot. This enables new and mature plantings to more easily extract water from the air and the soil, reducing the need for wa- tering and results in successful plantings even in drought conditions. "In keeping with Arborjet's commitment to offering innovative remedies that nurture plants, we are excited to introduce NutriRoot, a unique product designed to enhance root development and reduce watering stress. In particular, this is critical where water is a precious resource," said Russ Davis, president and COO of Arborjet.
