The Agricultural Safety Awareness Program Week is March 7-11.
U.S. Agricultural Safety and Health Centers will join with the American Farm Bureau in promoting ag safety through the week with the theme “Prepare. Prevent. Protect.”
Each day of the week will deal with a different safety topic, including livestock safety, the cost and finances of safety, disaster preparedness, youth safety, and equipment safety.
“The safety of everyone is our top priority,” says American Farm Bureau President Zippy Duvall.
“We encourage farmers and ranchers to take advantage of all the resources available during Agricultural Safety Awareness Program Week and make safety a priority year-round.”
The Agricultural Safety Awareness Program is a part of the Farm Bureau Health and Safety Network of professionals who share an interest in identifying and decreasing safety and health risks.
The Ag Centers’ YouTube channel contains new content and fresh ideas about how to stay safe while working in agriculture, forestry, and fishing.
