The 2016 ISU Turf Field Day is in the books, and attendees enjoyed perfect weather, informative talks, and great food. Speakers covered topics including: pollinators, athletic field safety, irrigation audits, putting green organic matter management, how to prune trees on a golf course, weed control for ground ivy, just to name a few topics. The group also participated in the popular and informative weed, disease, and insect walk, and finished with lunch and a trade show with exhibitors. Exhibitors provided demonstrations and answered questions after lunch. We look forward to a bigger field day next year with many new projects being underway!
