| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water shortages in Australia and their effect on the turf industry. States that "the turf industry has taken a responsible position, being proactive in finding solutions to water and its use in the turf industry." Briefly mentions the practice of harvesting stormwater for golf course maintenance. States that "stormwater is a waste...[golf course managers need] to be able to harvest, store and resuse water where and when [they] want rather than see it run down the drain and out to sea." concludes that "the solution may not be the total solution but when combined with other strategies can be an answer." |
