As a member each Golf Club pays an annual fee of 100 swedish crones per club member. Of these 100 crones about 25 crones are used to cover the costs of the green section in the Swedish Golf Federation. Each club obtains 2 turf visits from the agronomist each year. If the club would like to have more visits he has to pay for it. The green section is co-operating with national and international research institutions.
National research is performed together with universities or companies.
International research started first with Nordic cooperation. After a couple of years the work extended to be connected with Canada. About 10 different research projects or tests are performed each year. The research could comprise everything from fertilizing tests to the investigation of leachings from golfgreens. Agronomists Each agronomist has about 60-70 golf clubs in his region.
