A @USGAGrnSection funded article was published today. Great work by my student @MikeB_Turf writing the article! This research is very informative to golf course superintendents in Arkansas and throughout the Mid-South facing nematode pressure.

This new overseeding trial is sweet!! Have studied a lot of things over the years but watching overseeding plots jump out of the ground is strangely satisfying… great work by the turf team!!

Sorry I had to miss it…it’s a brave new world out there!!
Close to 200 people gathered in person and online Monday for the 2nd annual AI in Agriculture Symposium, hosted by @AginArk at the Don Tyson Center for Agricultural Sciences. Among the speakers were UADA researchers Jason Davis and Dongyi Wang. In a symposium roundtable, panelists from academia and the private sector agreed that while AI is making coding, data analysis and content creation faster, human expertise remains essential. @uarkbumpers @DavisSprayGuy @UarkBENG

Centipede patch update…no rain for 6 weeks, an inch about 10 days ago and ~20 high temperature records set in the same time frame, centipede (left) is recovering better than the zoysia on the right. #turfobservations #noirrigation

Several have asked about results…this trial is particularly attractive, but I don’t even know what the treatments are! All products are coded…we call this a “blind” trial, which reduces my ability to be biased towards any “product”!! A fun fact about ag research…

It was a pleasure to co-author this new fact sheet with two turf pathologists and mentors I greatly respect, Dr. Rick Latin and Dr. @KernsJim . This article will be a beneficial resource to turf managers in Arkansas and beyond.
