Discusses a recent Economic Impact Survey conducted by the University of Florida, which indicted that the turfgrass industry in Florida generates $8.6 billion dollars per year. Details expenditures and amount of personnel employed on Florida golf courses, giving evidence of the importance of the golf industry in Florida.
