NC Cooperative Extension Updates


FUMIGANT TRAINING

A Phase II requirement of the new fumigant regs is for applicators to receive product safety training and pass a test. You can do this on-line through the EPA website, or attend an in-person training/testing provided by NCDA&CS. We have scheduled an in-person option on 3/13, details to follow. Note that either option entitles you to 2hrs X & 2hrs V, which satisfies the Private Applicator recert requirements. If you do the on-line version, you have to present the certificate to NCDA&CS to receive the V & X credits (details coming).

SORGHUM/CORN MEETING

Another reminder, 2/21, 6 pm, Louisburg, call to register.
