Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water conservation for turfgrasses. States that "[Gordon Johansson] was given the opportunity, with the help of Sean Moher from Manderly Turf and the CGSA, to visit the Turfgrass Water Conservation Alliance (TWCA) in Albany, Oregon for a seminar on all things water, specifically drought tolerant turfgrasses." Profiles the TWCA, stating that "in 2009, three grass seed production and marketing companies and an internationally recognized turf grass breeding and research station formed the Alliance." Asks "what can be done to move towards a solution to draught-plagued turfgrass?" and suggests potential fixes. Provides statistics to show the "importance and gravity of the situation." |
