Research

Faculty and Staff of the MSU Turfgrass Program have consistently provided pertinent, cutting-edge research to serve constituents and practitioners in Michigan and beyond, for all areas of Turf – golf, sports turf and lawn care.  The vast majority of this work has been conducted at the Hancock Turfgrass Research Center, located at the south end of the MSU campus.  Funding sources have been from the University and private industry, with the most consistent source being the Michigan Turfgrass Foundation.
