Sand Meadows Research is a
unique company that is located on 2000 acre farm in Central
Florida. The current
crops are bahia and bermuda pastures, overseeded ryegrass pasture, rye/wheat
pasture, peanuts, blueberries, hay, timber, and cattle. Also, we border two sod farms and have
permission to do research on their farms.
However, we are expanding our high maintenance turfgrass areas this summer (2011) to include
St. Augustinegrass, Bermudagrass fairways, Zoysiagrass, and Centipedegrass.
Research Experience:
Dr. Teuton specializes in pesticide and
fertility research. His Masters Degree
was done with Barry Brecke Ph.D. and Bryan Unruh Ph.D. at the University
Florida where he focused on 'Biology and Control of Tropical Signalgrass'. However, Dr. Teuton also did research on weed control and herbicide tolerance on all the major warm-season
turfgrass species as well as cotton, peanuts, and soybeans.
Dr. Teuton's Ph.D. was directed by Tom Mueller Ph.D. at the University of Tennessee where Dr. Teuton concentrated on
fertility, plant growth regulators, and herbicide tolerances of Hybrid Kentucky Bluegrass. He also worked on many other turfgrass, soybeans, corn, and
vegetable crops experiments.
Dr. Teuton has 11 refereed
journal articles and a proven track record in research. While briefly at the University of Missouri he discovered glyphosate resistant annual bluegrass and has several journal article to come on it.
Goals: To provide the highest customer experience
possible. My business to provide quality
data that is useful to both the customer and the industry. Since, research is my business I am not
bogged down with the other stuff that the University’s are required to do. We want to be your ‘Go To Person’ for research in Florida.
