This year’s program is more diversified than ever, with programs of interest presented by Extension Specialists from the 4 states area, numerous agricultural exhibits, and a free lunch will be provided for those attending.
Programs will include row crops, livestock, wildlife, and pecans. We will include
six 30-minute breaks in which participants can visit the various exhibits. A tentative program is on the back of this letter and NOTE that changes may be made prior to the event. View the AGENDA here.
A Private Pesticide Applicators Training Session for Arkansans will be held during the Ag Expo beginning at 2:15 p.m., Thursday, February 11, 2016, in the Hospitality Room. Anyone needing to be certified or re-certified for an Arkansas pesticide license should plan to attend this training. This will be the last time this year to renew your pesticide license. The training is required for a first time license holder and again every five years.
Remember, all Arkansas private applicator training sessions provided by the Cooperative Extension Service will be $10 per person payable at the door, cash or check. The $45 license fee for the AR State Plant Board, must be check or money order.
