overlook the value of fertilization.
A complete soil test is the place to
start to meet the recommended
needs. Forage crops can be
produced on all types of land and
are usually some of the most ef
ficient feeds that can be fed to
livestock. Proper fertilization will
make greater utilization of forage
lands.
To Update Private
Applicator Pesticide
Certificate
Many farmers have private
applicator licenses to buy and
apply restricted use pesticides to
cropland, livestock and poultry
buildings. These are usually issued
for three years. A number of these
will expire on Sept. 30, 1965. This
means you will need to attend a
meeting where current pesticide
uses and recommendations are
discussed and explained. By so
doing, you can quality to receive
an update training certificate
which in turn will get you a license
renewal.
During the winter time, a
number of meetings are held by
Extension and agri-business.
These are ideal times and places to
receive your update training
certificate. Dairy Days, Crops and
Soils Day and Poultry Day are
three such meetings. Don’t miss
the opportunity to update your
license before it expires.
