The fundamental theory section primarily introduces the concept of lawns, an overview of the lawn industry, lawn employment, the current state of lawn development, the characteristics of lawn grasses, variety selection, and the relationship between growth and development and the ecological environment. The establishment and maintenance management section mainly discusses the basic principles and techniques of lawn establishment, mowing, irrigation, and fertilization; techniques for controlling diseases, insects, and weeds; auxiliary management measures, and lawn grass growth control. The last four chapters focus on specialized management plans and techniques for golf course lawns, sports field lawns, green space lawns, and slope protection lawns. Finally, it covers the procedures and methods of turf production. In the writing process, this book pays equal attention to theoretical analysis and the introduction of practical production experience, enabling readers to benefit from both theory and practice.
