Environmental stewardship is more important than ever for golf course superintendents. At next year's Golf Industry Show, Nufarm will feature plans and programs to help superintendents maintain naturalized areas.
Throughout the week, visitors to the Nufarm booth can learn more about Nufarm products like Aneuw plant growth regulator; Sure Power, Millennium Ultra and SureGuard SC herbicides; and Traction and Pinpoint fungicides.
Naturalized Areas Presentations: With the growing focus on naturalized areas, Nufarm has solutions for making every course the best it can be. Attendees can come by Nufarm booth 4217 at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Jan. 29-30 during the show to hear Rick Fletcher and Aaron Hathaway, Nufarm’s technical services managers for turf & rnamental, talk about the care and cultivation of naturalized areas.
Naturalized Areas Rotation Plan: Nufarm offers expertise in planning and caring for naturalized areas on the golf course. Superintendents will learn how a rotation that includes Sure Power for tough broadleaf weeds like ground ivy and wild violet, Millennium Ultra 2 to melt away unsightly weeds like Canada thistle, and SureGuard SC to keep dormant areas clean through the winter, will help superintendents manage naturalized areas. Plus, Millennium Ultra 2 preserves milkweed, which benefits pollinators. Attendees can come by the Nufarm booth to learn more about customizing a plan for their course.
Win an Original Grain Timepiece: While learning how to manage naturalized areas, attendees can enter to win one of two watches from Original Grain. These timepieces feature stainless steel and reclaimed wood – the perfect reminder to take time for nature.
EXCEL Leadership Program: Nufarm will host the most recent group of EXCEL participants into the third year of the program. The EXCEL program offers leadership training and development opportunities for participants. Program participants will take part in the education and networking opportunities provided at the show, as well as community involvement and further professional training later in the year. Each class participates for three years, completing a curriculum focused on personal development, leadership at their course, and leadership within the industry as a whole. Learn more about the EXCEL program and how to apply for the next class at the Nufarm booth.
