The turfgrass industry’s most forward-thinking company with its leading-edge endophyte technology, genetically superior bentgrasses, the first turf-type tall fescues with rhizomes and one of the first unique varieties of bluegrass in the last 20 years. SRO is an acknowledged leader in the research, breeding and production of turfgrasses. It’s located in Corvallis, Oregon, the heart of the Willamette Valley, the major grass seed production area of the world. Its continuing mission is to develop unique, improved turfgrass varieties of the highest quality and genetic purity.
Seed Research of Oregon created turfgrass-industry history in the late 1980s with the release of the new generation of creeping bentgrasses – SR 1020 and Providence (SR 1019). Those varieties have since captured over 30 percent of the golf course global market share.
