Went old-school in my presentations yesterday - used a sticker-board for engagement and feedback. Interesting results too. Hopefully I was challenging and engaging for all. Happy with the last question. Great event, great venue. @ICL_Turf @SyngentaTurfUK #turfsciencelive

This is some work that we’ve done on how surfactants increase water use efficiency in turfgrass, which has been published in The European Turfgrass Society Conference Proceedings. #surfactants #turfgrass #phdlife #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter
“It is testament to the quality of the research being undertaken at ICL.”
@AndyO_Turf reacts to the news that three collaborative research projects between ICL & partners were selected for publication in The European Turfgrass Society Conference Proceedings.
