Commercial turfgrass production began as early as 1920s in North America after World War 1 when mown paddocks were cut and lifted with spades then sold to golf courses.
The housing boom after World War II created a large demand for natural turf grass. Since then the turfgrass production industry has grown worldwide from strength to strength.
Turf farming incorporates the production of large areas of turfgrass to be harvested before we use in home and community landscaping via a combination of turfgrass management, general agriculture and manufacturing.
