Abstract/Contents:Discusses factors to consider when using pesticides, including efficacy, economics, and environment: "the three E's of pesticide use." States that "the GCSAA [Golf Course Superintendents Association of America] is working toward developing an environmental screen. A team of researchers is working to organize the data, produce a method and launch a user-friendly interface." Concludes that "the golf turf industry must take the lead in developing a tool that measures the three E's of pesticide use and embrace those results, because the E for environment is as important as those that stand for effectiveness and economics."
