Formed in 1995, it comprises some 60 companies (including affiliates),
collectively responsible for producing approximately 70 per cent of the cultivated turf grown in the
British Isles and supplying specialist knowledge and infrastructure to that industry.
Recently it has widened its scope of activities and has been involved in
discussions with Government departments, water companies and other related bodies about the impact
of water restrictions on the turf industry. The TGA has also been on the steering group of the
'Greening the Games' committee which is playing an important role in making sure the landscaping
aspects of the 2012 Olympic Games are properly recognised by organisers and contractors. |
