Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the formation of the Turfgrass Working Group (TWG) whose goal is "to provide the [turfgrass] industry with research it needs, while IFAS [Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences] makes long term commitments...based on joint planning." Describes TWG's inaugural meeting held October 13, 2001 in Gainesville, Florida. States that "TWG consists of teaching, research, and extension faculty from the University of Florida, and representatives of golf, sod, landscape, lawn care, sports turf, fertilizers, and chemical manufacturers from the industry side." Mentions items discussed at the meeting including poor communication between the turfgrass industry and IFAS. Concludes that the "first meeting ended with UF [University of Florida] Vice President Mike Martin...[providing] his views on how IFAS and the turfgrass industry will be shaped." |
