Better turf through research and education

We are a non-profit organization seeking to provide better turf for all aspects of the industry including athletic fields, cemeteries, golf courses, lawns, parks,  roadsides, institutional grounds, sod production, and other turfgrass areas. 

NTA membership supports the continued enrichment of the turfgrass industry.  Benefits include connection to the latest turf research and recommendations from the University of Nebraska turf program, discounted rates to educational events, continued education training, and access to the membership directory.

NTA allocates funds for the direct support of the University of Nebraska turfgrass research program.  Over 30 research projects are ongoing on a wide variety of research topics.  Furthermore, funds are used to provide education to the  professional turfgrass manager.
