Dodge County farmers whose pesticide applicators certification has expired or first-time applicators will want to register for one of two training sessions or for a self-study program in order to acquire their General Farming Private Applicator’s License. Current applicators whose certification is expiring will be receiving notification in the mail. The pesticide applicators training course will focus on the four steps of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program: Set Action Thresholds, Monitor and Identify Pests, Prevention, and Control. The program will also include a discussion of Pesticides and the Law, Reading the Pesticide Label, Safety and Emergencies, Calibrating Spray Equipment and a special discussion topic on the latest information about dicamba’s registration status and drift concerns.
