The Confronting Cropping Challenges (CCC) is a Nebraska Extension program focused on the current and emerging cropping issues that impacted the northeastern area of the state during the 2024 growing season. This program is also intended to help producers make decisions for 2025. After the CCC, producers have the option to recertify their Private Pesticide Applicator License for those licenses expiring in 2025. This is the eighth year for the program, and responses from previous years have been very positive.
This year, the program will be offered in four locations across northeast Nebraska in December. The CCC is a 2.5-hour program starting at 1 p.m. central time. To receive Private Pesticide Applicator Recertification Training, attendees will need to participate from 3:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. central time as well.
