Supporters of the Purdue University Turf Program in 1997

 

The Turfgrass Program at Purdue University relies on the support of the Midwest Regional Turf Foundation and gifts from the turfgrass industry for a large portion of its operating budget. We would like to extend our thanks to the members of the Midwest Regional Turf Foundation for their loyal support of turfgrass research and education at Purdue.

In addition, various individuals, organizations, and businesses have provided grants, products, or equipment to support our efforts throughout the year. Without this support, we would be unable to conduct many of the research projects included in this report. Special thanks are expressed to Kenney Machinery Corporation, Automatic Turf Equipment and Tri-State Turf for providing equipment; The Andersons and Knox Fertilizer Company for donating fertilizer; Indiana Seed Company, Turf Seed, Inc. and TenBarge Seed for donating seed.
