O.J. Noer Research Foundation

Dedicated to Supporting Research in Turf

Since 1958

Advanced degrees - gained through Noer grants, help assure a continuing source of turfgrass specialists for all facets of the industry. In addition, basic information provided by some projects has stimulated other research activity on related subjects to further benefit users and growers of turfgrass. Noer Foundation support of M.S. and Ph.D. research programs has assisted the following investigations:

(The Foundation has, of course, supported many other research projects that were not involved in advanced degree studies. )
