Agricultural Operations provides space and services for turfgrass field research projects. Plots (both soil- and sand-based) are established at Riverside and CVARS for many types of research, including breeding, water and salinity management, putting green and sports field simulation, and shade.
Services available include: soil preparation, turfgrass establishment, mowing (model putting green, fairway, sports field, home lawn), fertilizing, irrigation, pest management, verticutting, and aerification. Specialized cultural practices for research are also available.
