Abstract/Contents:Discusses water conservation, stating that "the strategic key to implementing any water efficiency plan is to first establish and provide the historical water use baseline." Lists factors that may affect the water use baseline. Explains that the water use baseline gives sports turf managers something to compare irrigation measurements to. Concludes that "the Irrigation Association, the consultant, the manufacturer, the contractor and the distributor are all key players playing their appropriate roles in providing technical and educational support for all irrigation systems."
