2023 saw the first major changes in private pesticide applicator regulation and education in over 20 years. Extension remains the main resource for pesticide use education and certification in Kentucky. When Changes were announced by the Kentucky Department of Agriculture in the fall of 2022, the agent in Caldwell County worked to incorporate the changes into Private Pesticide Applicator Trainings for 2023. Through the winter months 7 trainings were offered at different times and locations across the county to reach clientele. 137 Private Pesticide Applicators were trained and are now equipped to apply, store, and keep adequate records of applications.
