Cleanfarms will be running one of its collection events in southern Alberta this October. The organization rotates its collection program so events return to regions every three years.
Producers can drop off old or unwanted ag pesticides (identified with a Pest Control Product number on the label) as well as livestock/equine medications (identified with a DIN number, serial number, notification number or Pest Control Product number on the label).
The program only accepts specific products but not ones such as fertilizer, diluted solutions, treated seed, medicated feed, aerosol containers and premises disinfectants and sanitizers.
