Commercial Manure Applicator (CMA) - a person who transports and/or applies manure for payment
Off-farm Manure Applicator - a person or group whose livestock operations must file a Manure Management Plan under the Environmental Act (300 or more animals) and who applies at least a portion of the manure to land not owned or leased by their operation.
This course is hosted annually in Winnipeg in late March / April.
THIS YEAR THE COURSE DATE IS MARCH 20th, 2018.
To register for the CMA course, please complete and submit the 2018 CMA registration form before March 1, 2018.
