Eleven Counties For Ghemsweep *96
HARRISBURG (Dauphin
Co.) —Agriculture Secretary
Charles C. Broeiui commended
fanners and agribusinesses in nine
counties for participating in
CHEMSWEEP, a disposal prog
ram that helps fanners get rid of
unwanted pesticides, during 1995.
“Over 102,000 pounds of
materials were collected through
CHEMSWEEP last year," Brosius
said. “The collections are funded
through pesticide product registra
tion fees paid by chemical manu
facturers, so there is no cost to
participating farmers or
taxpayers.”
Before CHEMSWEEP, which
began as a pilot project in six
counties in 1991, there was no
cost-effective way for fanners and
agribusinesses to properly dispose
of unwanted, cancelled, sus
pended, or unusable pesticides.
Brosius noted.

Lancaster Fuming, Saturday, February 10,1996-Al7
locations and are no longer effec
tive for pest control constitute a
major portion of the pesticide col
lected in CHEMSWEEP.
The program included seven
additional counties in 1992, nine
counties in 1993, and 10 counties
in 1994. The first collections of
materials, in the fall of 1992 and
spring of 1993, yielded 28,397
pounds of unwanted pesticides.
Over 56,000 pounds of mater
ials were collected from the seven
additional counties in 1994.
Pesticides were collected from
Adams, Blair, Bradford, Bucks.
Crawford, Indiana, Sullivan, Tio
ga, and Venango counties in 1995.
Farmers, Christmas tree growers,
mushroom producers, nursery
men, greenhouse operations, fish
hatchery managers and other com
mercial enterprises were eligible
to participate.

Northumeriand, and Potter coun
ties have been selected for cleanup
activity in 1996.
Applications for the program
have been mailed to most growers
in the counties targeted for this
year’s cleanup eTort, and are also
available from county extension
offices and the Department of
Agriculture.
Forty-three counties have been
selected for inclusion in the
CHEMSWEEP program to date.
The department’s goal is to pro-'
vide pesticide disposal services to
every Pennsylvania county
through CHEMSWEEP.
PARADISE TOBACCO
Every buyer and every warehouse has an
idea about contract signing. Paradise Sales
Barn suggests that the farmer sign a
contract for $ 1.45/Lb. in '96 instead of
waiting to sign for $ 1.20 - $ 1.30/Lb.
Don’t let these companies know we will
sell dur '96 crop of tobacco for their low
price of $1.20-$ 1.30/Lb.
This is the warehouse's idea to get the
market to start where we stopped.
Farmers, please consider this idea.
