Extension Service sets pesticide applicator training

The Jefferson County Cooperative Extension Service, 500 S. Idaho St., will conduct training for private pesticide applicator certification/re-certification at 9 a.m. Thursday, March 21.

Participants completing this training will be certified to purchase a restricted pesticide license from the Arkansas State Plant Board, according to a news release.

Each participant will be charged a $20 fee which will go toward training materials and equipment. This fee will be collected before each training session and is separate from the fee by the Plant Board.
