About

Dr. P. Agustin Boeri is a turfgrass scientist whose research focuses on sustainable turf management, with a particular emphasis on warm-season turfgrasses and the integration of novel technologies into traditional horticultural practices. His most cited work, "Autonomous Compared with Conventional Mower Use on St. Augustinegrass Lawn Quality" (2023, 7 citations), represents a pioneering investigation into the use of robotic mowers for warm-season turf. Conducted at the University of Florida’s West Florida Research and Education Center, this study addresses a critical gap in the literature, as prior research had largely focused on cool-season grasses. By systematically comparing autonomous and conventional mowing systems, Dr. Boeri’s work provides essential data on turf quality, management efficiency, and the practical viability of robotic technology for homeowners and industry professionals. This contribution is particularly timely, given the growing public and commercial interest in automated lawn care. His research not only advances scientific understanding of turfgrass physiology and maintenance but also offers actionable insights for reducing labor and resource inputs in landscape management. Dr. Boeri’s work positions him at the forefront of integrating smart technology into sustainable horticulture, making his findings highly relevant for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to modernize turfgrass management.
