Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the USGA's lack of tight agronomic restrictions when choosing a laboratory. Currently, "the listed labs are only required to be able to write a letter to the USGA stating they will follow its lab protocol. There is no investigation of agronomic credentials." Discusses a lawsuit against architect Martin Hawtree for poor quality greens, and the implications it has on the turfgrass industry. |
