The presentations slides and handouts from the Sustainable Turfgrass Management in Asia 2013 conference are now available for download. Delegates to the conference – there were 242 in total, from 20 countries! – received this information in their seminar books and on CD, and we make these materials available online for those who were not able to attend the conference.

With information on a range of important topics, from maintenance equipment to fertilizer choice, irrigation management to recovery from flooding, and much more, you will be sure to find something of interest in these educational materials.

And these materials, although developed specifically for this conference, are in many cases applicable to anywhere in the world. As an example, you can look at my guide to estimating nutrient requirements which is applicable to turfgrass grown anywhere, John Neylan's superb presentation and handout on Irrigation Management - Making the Most of Your Water, and Dominic Wall's presentation on Setting Up a Golf Course for a Championship. And the slides from Kittipong Haranrat's presentation about recovery from the devastating floods that hit central Thailand in late 2011 have some great information about flood recovery, along with amazing photos of the flood.
