OABA Holds 2012 Custom Applicator Day in Waldo, Ohio

140 Attendees Participated in the Annual Event

Last week, OABA held its 2012 Custom Applicator Day. More than 140 participants attended the event and heard from industry experts focusing on the practical side of custom application, including topics like weed resistance, cover crops, insect resistance, rotating chemistries and more. Particularly well received was a presentation by Ford Baldwin regarding weed resistance issues in Arkansas. Attendees also had the opportunity to earn ODA pesticide recertification credits and pest management certified crop advisor CEUs.

 “OABA’s Custom Applicator Day is extremely valuable for the agribusiness community, helping applicators stay current with regulations and updated pesticide information,” said Tom Puch, OABA Agronomy & Plant Protection Chairman. “We were very pleased with this year’s event. The speakers did an excellent job, and several of the participants told me it was one of the best programs we’ve had. I am honored to have been part of it.”

OABA would like to thank all the attendees, speakers and exhibitors for helping to make the event a success. For additional upcoming OABA events, workshops and educational courses, see the OABA website.
