2026 Application Operator Training Recap
We recently had the opportunity to connect with dry and liquid application operators at our 2026 Application Operator Training events in Blackfoot, Idaho, and Moses Lake, Washington, and we want to say a big thank you to everyone who attended.
Both events brought together operators from across the region for a day of learning, discussion, and networking. Attendees earned 6 application operator credits (Washington and Idaho residents) while gaining valuable insights to help them stay compliant, improve application accuracy, and make the most of today’s technology in the field.
