Grassed areas for parks, golf courses, athletic fields, and home lawns are becoming more important every day as people and companies are spending more money to create an attractive environment using turfgrass as a major component of the plan. Students learn about turfgrass identification, culture, weed identification and treatment, irrigation, entomology, plant pathology, and the business management skills required to run a successful operation.
