County Ag Inspector
The County Agricultural Inspector (CAI) program has been active in Minnesota since 1929. The main duty of the CAI is to carry out the activities set forth from the Noxious Weed Law. The Commissioner of Agriculture can ask the CAI to participate in other control programs for seeds, feeds, fertilizer, pesticides, and insect pests.
In Kittson County the core duty of the CAI is to be the local contact for landowners with noxious weed questions or concerns. Other duties include annual seed sampling and administering applicator tests.
Minnesota Noxious Weed Law. Minnesota Statutes, sections 18.75 to 18.91
A person owning land, a person occupying land, or a person responsible for the maintenance of public land shall control or eradicate all noxious weeds on the land at a time and in a manner ordered by an inspector or county-designated employee.
