I made a few notes at the recent Philippine Golf Course Management Conference. I was there to speak about irrigation water and soil test interpretation.

The conference program was excellent and I learned a lot. Things I noted, which will perhaps be of interest:

1. Do you know about this sand calculator from Purdue University?

2. One of the speakers showed how the Turf Tracker improves the precision of product applications to the golf course.

3. I was intrigued by the Zero Carbon Resorts program, and especially the Demonstration Cottage.

4. There was some discussion of the Philippines Köppen climate classification.
