Ala. Code § 2-22-4

Before any person may sell or offer for sale or exchange in this state any commercial fertilizer to a user thereof, the person shall first procure a fertilizer dealer permit from the commissioner authorizing the person to sell, exchange, or deal therein. The permit shall be issued on payment of a fee established by the Board of Agriculture and Industries not to exceed ten dollars ($10), and shall expire on September 30 of each year. A permit as required by this section shall be obtained for each separate place of business at which commercial fertilizer is sold or offered for sale to the user thereof. Any person required to procure a license under Section 2-22-5 shall not be required to procure a permit as required by this section as it is the intent of this section that every person who purchases any commercial fertilizer for resale where the fertilizer is not manufactured, mixed, formulated, or labeled by the person is required to obtain the permit required by this section.
