Henry County Farm Bureau is sharing resources that will help farmers keep safety top-of-mind through the Agricultural Safety Awareness Program. As part of this year’s ASAP commemoration, March 6-10 has been designated as Agricultural Safety Awareness Week. U.S. Agricultural Safety and Health Centers will join Farm Bureau in promoting the week with its theme “Lead the Way in Agriculture.”
A different safety focus will be highlighted by Farm Bureau and U.S. Ag Centers each day of the week: Monday, March 6 – Mental Health; Tuesday, March 7 – Preventive Health Care; Wednesday, March 8 – Safety Culture; Thursday, March 9 – Situational Awareness; Friday, March 10 –Temperature-Related Safety
During this week and throughout the year, Farm Bureau encourages farmers to make safety a priority on the farm.
Join the movement to keep farms safe and share your own safety messages on social media using the hashtags #ASAP23 and #USAgCenters.
