Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the role of Australia in turfgrass research, explaining that "many...products and management techniques are imported directly from the USA [United States of America] and Europe." Announces that Australia Golf Course Superintendents Association (AGCSA) "has established AGCSATech, a national turfgrass research and analytical services group." States that "the AGCSA has instigated a system whereby a percentage of income derived from soil/disease/water testing revenue will be directed to turfgrass research."
