In April of 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 of 2017 to complete the certification. Those who do not already have a pesticide license are required to attend a 3 hour course. If you intend to get a pesticide license in the near future, I suggest you get it before attending a FACT program or do both in the same year.
There is no cost to attend but please RSVP to 419-337-9210 or wyse.1@osu.edu
