The first of several private pesticide applicator training dates will be held on
Wednesday, Jan. 8, at 8:30 a.m. at the Nebraska Extension Crop Production Clinic at
the Panhandle Research Extension and Education Center in Scottsbluff. Private
pesticide licenses expiring in 2025, or anyone seeking a license may recertify or
certify at the Crop Production Clinic. The cost of the clinic is $95. Pre-register

The Nebraska pesticide and chemigation training dates will be held throughout the
Panhandle. The Nebraska Department of Agriculture will send notification letters to
applicators whose licenses expire in 2025. Pre-registration is required for all
training dates and locations, as seating space may be limited. The cost of the
training is $60, payable on the day of the training (Checks should be made payable
to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln). Bring the NDA letter to training and avoid
filling out more paperwork. The letter has a barcode needed for recertification.
Private pesticide licenses can also be obtained by completing an online course.
Pesticide applicators can purchase access to the course via

for information. The state pesticide license fee is $25 for private applicators. An
NDA private pesticide license card is required to purchase and use restricted-use
pesticides to produce Agricultural Commodities.
