2011 Private Pesticide Applicator Trainings

Ranchers and farmers who will be purchasing and/or applying “Restricted Use Pesticides” in their own operations need to be certified as Private Applicators by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. Operators that are currently certified need to check the expiration date on the wallet sized card they received from the Department of Agriculture. 

Training sessions for those with certifications that expire in 2011, or for applicators that need to be certified for the first time, will be offered on January 24 at 1:30 PM CT at the 4-H Building at the Fairgrounds in Valentine, on January 25 at the Village Hall in Merriman at 1:30 PM MT and on April 4 at 1:30 PM CT in the 4-H Building in Valentine.

Persons who currently hold a Nebraska private applicator’s certification that will expire in 2011 should have receive a “bar-coded” letter in December from the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. This form needs to be taken to the meeting.

Pre-registration is not necessary. If you have questions, please contact the Cherry County Extension Office at 402-376-1850 or 1-800-657-2188. In the case of inclement weather, please call the office to see if the training has been postponed.
