The 2023 Private Pesticide Applicator Training dates have been scheduled. Farmers who apply pesticides on their own farm should be private pesticide applicators and are required to keep records of the applications. The training covers how to use pesticide products safely, information about the worker protection standard, and some pest management issues common in Butler County.
