| Impact Report | Pesticide CEU Workshop The agent conducted a Pesticide Applicator License Continuing Education Workshop to assist New Mexico pesticide license holders in securing continuing education for their pesticide licenses. Topics included “Control and Management of Noxious Weeds”, “Review of Pesticide Safety”, “Management and Control of Feral Hogs”, “Brush and Weed Control Basics”, and “Update on Biocontrol of Salt Cedar in New Mexico”. A total of 39 persons attended the workshop, while 29 of the attendees received five CEU’s, making it possible to renew their pesticide license for the licensing period. All persons gained knowledge of pesticide laws and regulations, weed and insect management, safety, and application. Agricultural producers gained information about these subjects to enable them to be safe and knowledgeable pesticide applicators. License holders can significantly reduce pesticide application costs by applying pesticides themselves. |
