SAVE THE DATE: Penn State Turf and Ornamentals Field Days will be held on August 6, 2014
Golf course superintendents, sports turf managers, professional landscapers, grounds managers, and others interested in management of turf and landscape plantings will have the opportunity to see the latest trends and research from Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sciences during Turf and Ornamentals Field Days.
This event will take place on Aug. 6, 2014 at the Joseph Valentine Turfgrass Research Center on the University Park Campus. This year, participants will have the option of attending sessions at The Arboretum at Penn State. Participants will also be able to meet with turfgrass faculty on the morning of Aug. 7 and view plots in small groups. Core and category pesticide credits are anticipated on Aug. 6, but not on Aug. 7. Held every other year, Field Days highlights education and research trials on insect and disease management, turf weed control, species and cultivars, soil improvement, plant nutrition, as well synthetic sports turf. A barbeque is planned for the evening of Aug. 6. Speakers include Penn State faculty, staff, graduate students, and extension educators. Details on pesticide credits, program agenda, and registration will be forthcoming.
