The Association of European Turfgrass Producers, ETP, was formed on the 24th of November 2014 in Pisa. Its role is to connect the 700 or more turf growers throughout Europe, many of whom are quite isolated in terms of their geography, and in terms of their interaction with other growers. Bringing all those turf growers together will create a group with considerable potential for pooling resources, learning from each other, and tackling the issues facing our industry. A large turf show and expo was organised by ETP in Ysselstein, Netherlands in 2017. with over 400 attendees and visitors and exhibitors from europe and the USA it was very succesfull. This new event will bring a lot of new technology to the turf producer, all in one place and as a live demo ! The social element of the Association is important because that’s where some of the most fruitful conversations can be had…and where the most useful contacts can be made.
