USGA Turfgrass and Environmental Research Online 

The purpose of USGA Turfgrass and Environmental Research Online is to effectively communicate the results of research projects funded under USGA's Turfgrass and Environmental Research Program to all who can benefit from such knowledge. Since 1983, the USGA has funded more than 290 projects at a cost of $25 million. The private, non-profit research program provides funding opportunities to university faculty interested in working on environmental and turf management problems affecting golf courses. The outstanding playing conditions of today's golf courses are a direct result of using science to benefit golf. Click here.

The USGA Green Section has recorded and published information of value respecting proper maintenance and upkeep of golf courses since 1921, but May 1963 marked the debut of what golf course superintendents and course officials everywhere have come to know as the USGA Green Section Record. More that 200 issues later, it continues to provide the game of golf with pertinent information and unique perspective on the maintenance and management of golf courses. Click here.
