Registration Required

Presented by Drs. Bruce Clarke, James Murphy, and Ming-Yi Chou from Rutgers University, this seminar explores recent advancements in disease control for golf courses. Learn to develop effective, environmentally sound fungicide programs using best management practices, scouting, disease thresholds, disease forecasting models, and disease-resistant cultivars. The seminar covers maximizing cultural practices to promote turfgrass health and creating targeted fungicide application programs to enhance efficacy and reduce environmental impact. Discover how to use early-curative, threshold-based sprays and understand disease forecasting models for optimal fungicide application timing. Learn about adopting new bentgrass cultivars and autumn fungicide applications to reduce pathogen populations and mitigate disease risks.
