The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service offices in Brown, Lampasas, Mills, and San Saba counties are partnering together to conduct a Private Pesticide Applicator Training on Thursday, May 8th. The training will be at the First Baptist Youth Center in Goldthwaite at 1004 Fisher Street. The training will be from 8:30 – noon. This training is specifically for those seeking a Texas Department of Agriculture private applicators license and is not a continuing education unit training. The license is required to buy and apply restricted use/state limited use herbicides and pesticides. This program will provide the training and paperwork needed to obtain a new applicators license. Please note that there will be additional requirements to fulfill before you can receive your license. The Texas Department of Agriculture requires this training prior to being tested for a private applicator pesticide license. Individual registration is $55.00 due upon arrival. The fee includes the training fee and two course study manuals. The training is limited to the first 20 preregistered individuals to ensure study materials. Participants are asked to pre-register and for more information contact the AgriLife Extension Office in Mills County at 325-648-2650.
