The Midwest Regional Turf Field Day will be held on July 27 at the Wm H Daniel Turfgrass Research and Diagnostic Center in West Lafayette. This is a great opportunity for turf professionals to view the latest in turfgrass research, talk to Purdue specialists about turf and ornamental issues, and visit with exhibitors displaying the latest in turf equipment and products. The morning tours will visit experiments on the Turf Research Center including both lawn and golf turf topics including calibrating ride-on spreaders, insect control, fertilization, ID and control of nimblewill, Poa trivialis and Poa annua control, and much more. There will also be an afternoon program (with air conditioning) on turf insect pests. We have requested 3 CCH’s in Cat 3b for the Field Day as well as GCSAA educational units.. Additionally, Pork Chop Charlie will serve his renowned Pork Chops at noon. More information will be available from Jennifer at 765-494-8039 or at http://www.agry.purdue.edu/turf/events/field day/AttFD04.pdf. As always at MRTF Events, registration (excluding lunch) is complimentary for Purdue county extension educators.
