ACRC Seeks Input on Pesticide Container Recycling

ACRC Seeks Input on Pesticide Container Recycling

The Agricultural Retailers Association has partnered with the Ag Container Recycling Council to assess the current state of ag retailer participation in pesticide container recycling, which is an easy and free way for ag retailers to demonstrate your commitment to environmental protection and sustainability of modern agriculture.

ACRC, founded in 1992, is funded by pesticide manufactures and distributors and provides free collection of pesticide containers from commercial users of pesticides nationwide. Although many ARA members currently take advantage of this service, ACRC would like to increase participation throughout the ag retail sector.

Please complete this short, five-minute survey: http://www.questionpro.com/t/ANY1gZaD14.

The survey will help ARA and ACRC identify ways to facilitate ag retailer participation.
