Abstract/Contents:Criticizes the turf industry in general for researching higher maintenance-cost turfgrass species when species such as seashore paspalum are low maintenance, disease resistant and already used by some golf courses and landscaping companies. "... The majority in the golf industry are still far more interested in creating fast greens with excessive amounts of money than truly addressing environmental concerns."
