The Pesticide Safety Education Program (PSEP) at New Mexico State University promotes the responsible use of pesticides through educational resources and training. Training covers a broad range of human safety and environmental issues for a statewide target audience of approximately 2,800 private applicators, 2,200 commercial applicators, and 120 pesticide dealers. This is a collaborative effort with the New Mexico Cooperative Extension Service (NMSU—CES), New Mexico Department of Agriculture (NMDA), USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA— NIFA), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

CEU Workshops:
We conduct workshops annually in New Mexico to provide certified applicators (private, public, and commercial) with information on new and emerging insect, disease, and weed pests in field crops, greenhouse crops, forage crops, fruit and vegetable crops, turf areas, and shade trees and ornamental plantings. These applicators will receive CEU credits required for license renewal.

Attendees will earn 5 CEU's toward their NMDA issued pesticide applicators license.
Sign-in begins at 7 AM. Light refreshments and beverages will be provided during the event.
