HIGHLIGHTS FROM ATA 2021
ANNUAL CONFERENCE L
ike nearly every other state, regional or national turfgrass organization, we had to convert the 2021 ATA Annual Conference into a virtual event. The great news is, our amazing educators have adapted to this format and still delivered a first class educational experience! Attendees benefitted from the research and experience of a variety of researchers and turf professionals from far and wide. A special thanks to our presenters:
