Latest Information on MSMA Restrictions
Many turf managers have been asking questions about the official restrictions on MSMA applications to control weeds on golf courses, residential and commercial lawns, athletic fieds, and sod farms. Faculty at UT have put together a factsheet explaining the EPA restrictions implemented on September 30th, 2009. We hope that this factsheet will serve as a valuable reference for turfgrass managers throughout Tennessee.

A Sincere "Thank You"
The entire University of Tennessee Turfgrass Team would like to thank all of you for making our 2009 Turfgrass Research Field Day a major success! Over 240 people made their way to the East Tennessee Research and Education Center in Knoxville to learn more about the latest research on a wide array of turfgrass topics.
We have begun planning the 2010 Field Day and will post information on this website as it becomes available. Thank you again for your support of the turfgrass research program at UT. Those people who could not attend this year's Field Day can view the video below for a short recap.
