Research
The Texas A&M University System has helped turfgrass managers,
landscapers, sod producers, and the general public solve turfgrass
related problems for many years. Through a network of research,
extension, and teaching programs, Texas A&M has provided solutions
based on sound research, extensive outreach educational programs,and assistance through statewide and county extension activities.
Research efforts strive to integrate urban landscape systems
to enhance quality of life, develop improved technologies for
the management of weeds, diseases, insects, and other important
pests, develop turf systems to reduce impact of environmental
pollutants, and develop landscape management systems that conserve
natural resources. These research priorities are addressed through
strong interdisciplinary cooperation in agronomy, breeding and
genetics, plant physiology, entomology, pathology, weed science,
and soil science, plant nutrition, and water quality.
