Landscape Management

Landscape Management offers a diverse array of content aimed at fostering growth and advancing our readers' expertise. In 1962, James Nelson identified a chance to provide targeted information for those entering the field of pesticide application in outdoor spaces. As the editor of Pest Control (now known as Pest Management Professional), he initiated the publication of Weeds and Turf. After three years, the magazine was rebranded to Weeds Trees & Turf and retained that title until 1987, when it became Landscape Management. In 1999, the publication shifted focus from a general turf magazine, which included golf and sports turf, to one dedicated entirely to supporting green industry professionals in enhancing their landscape and lawn care businesses. We continue to serve this audience and uphold this mission today.
