| USGA Summary Points: | Breeding efforts to develop adapted varieties of native buffalograss for commercial use as low-maintenance turf has resulted in Legacy sales of $232,000 in 2001 and an estimated $600,000 in 2002. More than 80% of this material is exported to other states. Extensive drought conditions experienced during the 2002 growing season increased interest in buffalograss turf usage. The 2003 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trial was initiated in July. Overseeding trials with fine-leaved fescues (i.e. hard, blue sheep, and Chewings) were conducted in an effort to enhance fall color retention and spring green up. |
