The AGCSA has been working hard to put together a balanced education session for this year’s conference and is pleased to announce that keynote speaker will be Dr Frank Rossi, turfgrass science associate professor at Cornell University. Dr Rossi will be delivering a number of sessions during the conference on his many areas of expertise. His current research focus is on nutrient management, improved mowing technology and non-chemical pest management programmes for golf and sports turf.

Over the coming weeks we will highlight all aspects of this year’s conference which will also coincide with the International Summit of golf course superintendent organisations. Representatives from the various international superintendent associations will be making the trip to Melbourne which means this year’s conference is set to be one of the biggest.
