Check the expiration date on your pesticide license! A software issue is not allowing us to know who needs to be recertified this year.
Remember the Private Applicator Training is for Farmers, Ranchers and Growers who are commercially producing an agriculture commodity.
Online Training: Go to www.uaex.edu/pat then select “Private Applicator Training”. This will provide the links, instructions, and steps to follow if you are a “First Timer/Initial Certification” or if you are needing a “Recertification”. The Online Training Fee is $20.

After completion make sure you complete the proper form (DP 25) or renewal form and mail payment for your license ($10 for One Year) ($45 for Five Year) to the AR State Plant Board.
