Turf disease weekly report
Outlook and Summary: August 25, 2008 Problems of annual bluegrass continue to be a problem – from Waitea Patch to heat and drought stress. Only a month left until the end of the summer – a return to a less stressful time is almost in sight! “The Man” Has Been Busting My Chops Over Permits The USDA and CDFA have become very stringent with samples and rejected a few boxes in the last few weeks without supporting sample info. This had lead to delayed diagnoses and affected our ability to get back to you ASAP with a disease solution. Please fill out the lab diagnostic forms and include a copy of the federal and state permits to make sure they don’t intercept and throw your stuff away. UCR Field Day – September 4, 2008 Our new turfgrass extension specialist, Dr. Jim Baird has resurrected the UCR Turfgrass Filed Day. More info on this event can be found at: http://ucrturf.ucr.edu/home/forms/Mailer.08.FieldDay.pdf Anthracnose Best management Practices The latest issue of GCSAA’s Golf Course Management’s Research Section is dedicated exclusively to pests of annual bluegrass. These include annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) and anthracnose. Check them out! The anthracnose article covers a lot of ground, and the ABW article features a pest that is not in California (yet) but may be a future threat. Read it online here (GCSAA membership required): http://gcsaa.org/GCM/Default.aspx Dr. Frank P. Wong

Government Relations Chairman & Lobbyist in action! California Government Relations Network Announcement James C. Husting, CGCS
On February 28, 2008, Governor Schwarzenegger wrote to the leadership
of the California State Senate, outlining key elements of a comprehensive
solution to problems in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The first element
on the Governor's list was "a plan to achieve a 20 percent reduction in
per capita water use statewide by 2020." In March 2008, the 20x2020 Agency
Team was convened to develop a plan to meet the goal set by the Governor.
The Team has established a new website to help keep the public informed
on its progress and upcoming opportunities for public interaction. You
can access the new site at
