Here in Tx its not hard or expensive. One day class is $20.00, book is $20.00, license fee is $50.00. You have to have at least 15 CEU's (class time) over 5 yrs to maintain your license.
The Ag service in our county has a seminar every year for the CEUs and they're always interesting and informative.
We bought the book in advance and studied before the seminar. Hardest thing you have to learn is how to calculate the spray rates for your rig.
Our place is small, so our 60 gal tank works okay. We have a 200 gal water tank on a buggy we take to the spray site for refills. A little time consuming, but spray tank, water buggy, building our own boom, etc, we have around $500 in the rig, including the pumps.
Having the license allows you to purchase a wide variety of herbicides from an ag provider and is much cheaper.
We only raise hay, no crops, so can't recommend any herbicides for crops.
We have been very pleased with GrazonNext and use it exclusively. For total kill, glyphosate (round up) and for brush, stumps we use Remedy. Be sure to follow the directions and use a surfactant, NOT SOAP!
