It also offers attendees access to more than 150 agriculture-related businesses and trade show exhibitors and continuing education units for both pesticide license holders and veterinarians.
Both in-person and virtual attendance are offered. The cost is $300 for in-person attendance, $160 for virtual registration and $150 for youth. A $40 fee will be charged for late registration after July 27.
