Welcome back as we end the week with some farm safety.
Agriculture ranks among the most hazardous jobs in the world.
Farmers are at very high risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries; and farming is one of the few industries in which family members (who often share the work and live on the premises) are also at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries.
Did you know about 84 kids die each year in accidents on farms, according to a new study, and 26,570 are injured badly.
That is why it is so important to us not only as Farmers, but as Mothers to educate those on our operations, our kids and to all of you! You can never have enough education on safety in our eyes.
