Abstract/Contents: | Comments that "the 'greenies' [environmentalists] are winning the war over the green industry" in regards to pesticide, fertilizer, and water use. Contends that networking among turfgrass professionals is their "only chance." Accuses the "other side" of a "rejection of scientific data and challenge of researchers' integrity." Describes the formation of a Best Management Practices committee by the Florida Turfgrass Association in order to "formulate BMPs that the entire turf industry will support and defend." |
