Abstract/Contents: | Discusses sustainable land management on golf courses, focusing on maintenance practices that may promote sustainability. Includes information regarding the maintenance conducted at Northland Country Club in Duluth, Minnesota, including aeration and mowing frequency of its fairways. States that "in order to get a handle on growth, we needed to implement a PGR (Plant Growth Regulator) program and even more importantly adopt a very lean approach to fertilization." Suggests that solid tine coring causes less disruption to play, and emphasizes the potential importance in communicating and educating golf course members on maintenance decisions. |
