Aquatrols appointed Ben Pease, Ph.D. as Midwest territory manager. Pease brings more than two decades of experience in turfgrass science, research, and applied agronomy to the role. A highly respected turfgrass physiologist, he has dedicated his career to advancing turf performance and sustainability through innovative research and education.
Throughout his career, Pease has authored numerous peer-reviewed papers in Agronomy Journal, Crop Science, and Applied Turfgrass Science, and has presented his research nationally and internationally. His expertise spans turfgrass physiology, soil-plant interactions, nutrient management, and stress tolerance, all of which align closely with Aquatrols’ mission to improve turf performance through smarter water and soil management.
“We’re excited to have Ben joining the Aquatrols team,” said Wes Hamm, director of golf sales, North America. “His industry experience coupled with the strong relationships he’s built with distributor partners and industry leaders will assist in securing Aquatrols’ leadership position well beyond the borders of his Midwest territory.”
