Iowa law requires confinement site manure applicators to complete two hours of continuing education each year of their three-year certification or take and pass the exam once every three years. If training is missed, applicators must pass the exam to recertify.
This workshop can be used for:
✅ Initial certification
✅ Recertification
✅ Continuing education for years 2 & 3 of a license
👉 Fees (All paid to the DNR after completing the training)
$100 for a three-year certificate
$25 annual education fee
📌 Applicators must be certified to handle, transport, and apply manure if the operation has more than a 500-animal unit capacity (unless applied by a commercial applicator).
🗓 Be sure to complete certification before March 1 to avoid late fees.
