The mission of the division is to protect people and the environment from any adverse effects of pesticide use while maintaining the availability of pesticides for beneficial uses; to assure that effective fertilizer items are provided for agricultural and consumer uses. The Division is organized into six different components: pesticide user licensing and recertification, pesticide registrations, pesticide compliance monitoring, and fertilizers, Pesticide Analytical and Response Center, and pesticide use reporting.
