Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential of government water restrictions and their impact on golf courses, noting that "these restrictions would most likely only come up if there were a severe water crisis." Details the development of the Minnesota Golf Course Water Stewardship Guideline, "a document intended to 'sell' the benefits of golf courses, the importance of turf irrigation, and the responsible attitude we as golf course managers have toward the most valuable resource: water." Suggests that the golf industry needs to make a plan for its future, and encourages Minnesota Golf Course Superintendents Association members to review the document. Provides an example of the Guide entitled BMP [Best Management Practices] #2: Knowing When and Where to Irrigate. |
