Texas Golf Industry Best Management Practices Education Video

By Advocacy Network posted 3 days ago

  

The Texas Golf Industry BMP Educational video shows the mission of Texas golf course superintendents to provide valuable ecosystem services, quality playing conditions, jobs, and economic impact for the state. The video highlights the benefits of approximately 85,000 acres of greenspace, $7.4 billion of total economic impact, and 100,000 jobs driven by the Texas golf industry.  Texas golf’s greenspace includes 57,000 acres of rough, wetlands, and native terrain which support wildlife and pollinator habitats, cool urban heat islands, mitigate flooding, and filter stormwater runoff. The 3-minute video features water conservation best management practices (BMPs) including use of drought tolerant turfgrass species and recycled water for irrigation at 40 percent of Texas golf courses: Texas Golf Industry Video — Texas Golf Industry BMP
