| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the difficulties that superintendents face regarding the choosing and applying grass seed for their courses. States that many superintendents are searching for grass cultivars that are heat and drought resistant, as well as salt resistant due to reduced amounts of potable water available to superintendents. Notes that prices for seed are due to increase because of increased demand after the recession combined with reduced production of seed. Explains that using lower-quality, cheaper seed could be more expensive overall due to problems that cheaper seed can cause. |
