All youth aged 14 and 15 who work on a farm or ranch other than their own MUST be certified through a Hazardous Occupations Course to obtain a Farm Husbandry Permit or "farm permit" without further testing.
Successful completion of the course will allow trained youth to operate a tractor over 20 horsepower, and connect or disconnect an implement or any of its part to or from a tractor.
There will be a training in North Platte at the West Central Research & Extention Center on June 11 and 12, 2020. Call 308-352-2683 for instructions on registration and payment.
