This course covers the different sections of a pesticide label.
Labels are increasing in complexity and depth of information, and it is not suggested anyone try to memorize a pesticide label. By reviewing parts of a label and recognizing label language and use, applicators should feel more comfortable with the information on pesticide labels and confident when using a selected pesticide. This module uses multiple examples of labels that cover a variety of types of pesticides and a variety of sites.
This course is approved by the FDACS for a maximum of 1 Hour of CEU for the following Categories: 482 Core (Structural) and 487 Core (Ag). The course is online and available in both English and Spanish.
