Turf & Soil Diagnostics promotes Duane Otto to president

Turf & Soil Diagnostics announced the promotion of Duane Otto to president. In his new capacity, Otto will be responsible for the overall direction and performance of the company. 

Before the promotion, Otto had been Turf & Soil Diagnostics’ vice president, performing soil testing and supervision, and providing excellent customer support since 1996. He is an industry leader and has been instrumental in the success of the company’s labs. In addition to his new responsibilities, Otto will continue his testing, quality and management functions.

Sam Ferro, who has been TSD president since 2000, will remain with company as vice president, performing lab management duties and providing support to the company’s resident, staff and customers. This somewhat reduced role should allow Ferro more free time for family and other outside endeavors.
