Pesticide applicator training sessions have been scheduled in three area towns according to Tim Schnakenberg, an agronomy specialist with University of Missouri Extension.
Two sessions are scheduled for Tuesday, March 12, in Cassville at the courthouse commissioner’s room. One will training starts at 1:30 p.m. and the other will start at 6 p.m. in the same location in Cassville. Participants can choose which session to attend and both sessions will last about three hours.
Another pesticide applicator training is scheduled for 1 p.m., Thursday, March 14, in Taney County at the Taneyville Municipal Building.
In Lawrence County, the training will start at 1 p.m. on Friday, March 15, at the Southwest Research Center near Mt. Vernon.
Missouri law requires all purchasers and users of Restricted-Use pesticides for private use to attend a training session to be certified for a private applicators license. The license is good for five years.
This training is open to producers of agricultural commodities, 18 years of age or older, who need to receive a private pesticide license and those who need to recertify their license. There is a charge of $15 for the purchase of the training materials, payable at the door.
Schnakenberg suggests that pesticide applicators should be looking at their licenses for the expiration date to see if they need to recertify or attend a training session if it has expired. This type of training is required to recertify licenses.
