Required Paraquat Training
As we prepare to enter the 2025 production season, and begin frequent herbicide applications, please remind producers to remain current with required training for paraquat applications and have proof of completion. Each applicator must keep training completion record, and if requested by regulatory agencies, be able to produce this information. In addition, due to the fact that the required paraquat training applies not only to purchase and application, but all aspects of mixing, loading, and handling, please communicate the importance of farm employees completing the paraquat training as well. The training is available in both English and Spanish versions and requires training certificate renewal every 3 years.
