CEU's for Certified Arborists

1h 7m
This presentation will cover key aspects that impact labor in your landscape maintenance business. In this fast-paced world of constant demand for production and less labor to perform that work it is critical to use product technologies to your advantage over competitors in the green industry, which allows your business to adapt and innovate. Unfortunately, 71% of green industry companies indicate that skilled labor is becoming scarcer, compromising companies' abilities to grow. Utilizing tools like tree, shrub and turf plant growth regulators (PGR's) and safer non glyphosate herbicides and including innovative protocols for plant and vegetation management are imperative for the financial success of every business. PGR's provide several other benefits for your business-like retention of our clients and employees, improved plant health, and development of drought tolerance in our landscape plant material.
