Abstract/Contents: | Describes the "need for water conservation in turfgrass management" as "critical," focusing on three areas: equipment that uses water, agronomic procedures that minimize water use, and programs "that utilize under and undeveloped sources of water." Discusses these three areas, including specific suggestions for water management. Concludes that "economic, social, legal and environmental issues arising from water demands need not be incompatible, nor must they be detrimental or destructive to the nations's water resources." |
