Describes four types of tree maintenance: pruning, thinning, cleaning, and reduction. Explains that "competetion between tree and turf roots for water, nutrients and space is one of the biggest challengeds facing the golf course superintendent." Recommends using an arborist to select trees compatible with the turf, and also mentions the use of root barrier products, stating that "many products on the market can effectively limit intrustion of tree roots into turf areas." Briefly discusses pest management, suggesting the golf course superintendent use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies.
