Why we do internal research rather than pay for universities to do it:
Over the last 2 years we have spent $50,000 on research, and have discovered important information about our plants and turf varieties. To do the same research with universities may have cost more than $200,000.
We believe that private enterprise, consultants, and contractors can do similar research at a fraction of the cost. This allows us to conduct far more intensive and far reaching studies, bringing specifiers and users of our products more comprehensive information and confidence in utilising our products.
