How many of you have ag pesticides in your barns or garages that are old, outdated or unknown?\u00a0 For years, farmers and ranchers in the area have had no true method for proper disposal of these products.\u00a0 The only outlet for proper disposal in the past has been to haul the chemicals to approved Texas Commission on Environmental Quality locations at substantial cost to the producer.\u00a0 Finally, we have a simple, no-cost, solution!\u00a0 In partnership with the Texas Department of Agriculture, CleanEarth, US Ag Recycling, Victoria County, and Texas A&M Agrilife Extension, we are bringing farmers and ranchers an agricultural pesticide waste collection day.\u00a0 The event will be held on Wednesday, June 29 at the Victoria County Precinct #4 yard located at 226 Beck Road East just outside of Inez. \u00a0The event will run promptly from 8AM \u2013 12PM. \u00a0Participants will be able to dispose of their chemicals FREE OF CHARGE and will not have to leave their vehicles.<\/p>\n
