A total of 30 farmers from San Vicente and Jalacte Villages benefited from a one-day training session on calibration, calculation and the use of pesticides held last week in the Toledo District.

The training was conducted by the Pesticides Control Board in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and the Maya Leaders Alliance.

Farmers who are interested in renewing their pesticide license or in applying for one, are asked to contact the Agriculture Department in their district for the date schedule to undertake the training.
