The quality of the video and optional exam is dependent on the connection from your device. These recordings will be available indefinitely through the planting season.
Certificates – there are two:
For participation in the stewardship: The certificate required at the County Agricultural Commissioner Office(s) where the rice is farmed.
Continuing education certificates are separate: The continuing education credit is available to all DPR licensees, Private Applicators and certificate holders, including Certified Crop Advisers. We will work with the County Agricultural Commissioners on certification of growers choosing to take the CEU option by accepting the AgCEU verification of attendance.
