In April 2014, Senate bill 150 passed in the Ohio Assembly requiring farmers who operate over 50 acres to complete a fertilizer applicator certification course. This law applies to broadcast fertilizer and sidedress/topdress nitrogen. Farmers have until September 2017 to complete the certification. Those who do not already have a pesticide license are required to attend a 3 hour course. There is no cost to attend but please RSVP by calling 419-213-2029, or emailing stone.91@osu.edu
