Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the relationship between golf and water conservation, stating that "water is rightly regarded as the most valuable natural resource input for golf facilities." Details the potential need for golf courses to use water efficiently, particularly in areas where restrictions are common. Mentions technological advances for irrigation, and explains that "being proactive and offering to be a part of the solution gets us a seat at the table and a much better chance of achieving practical policy." Concludes that the golf industry should work with those making water use legislation to ensure a positive future for the industry. |
