They save valuable time and are essential to agricultural productivity. They also represent an ever-present danger to the people who operate them. There are a host of hazards that makes agricultural machinery the leading cause of injury and death on American farms and ranches. This fact sheet summarizes the hazards associated with operating farm machines and presents information about how farmers and farm workers can protect themselves from injury or death when working around agricultural machinery. Safe machinery operation primarily depends on how you operate the machine. Machines are inanimate objects; they cannot think, reason, or adapt to meet the needs of people. The responsibility for machinery safety rests with you. Just as we are told to drive defensively when operating an automobile, machine operators should always be thinking ahead and anticipating potential hazards.

Waterborne Pathogens As part of the Food Safety on the Farm series, a collection that reviews the generally recognized principles of GAPs as they relate to produce, primarily at the farm level and with particular focus on fresh Florida crops and practices, this publication focuses on GAPs and GHPs relating specifically to water use. The publications in this series can be found online at the EDIS Web site at http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/topic_series_food_safety_on_the_farm Introduction Good agricultural practices (GAPs) and good handling practices (GHPs) encompass the general procedures growers, packers and processors of fresh fruits and vegetables should follow to ensure the safety of their product. GAPs usually deal with pre-harvest practices (i.e., in the field), while GHPs cover post-harvest practices, including packing and shipping. This fact sheet covers GAPs and GHPs relating to water use. Seven other Florida Cooperative Extension factsheets will focus on other specific aspects of the GAPs program and how they relate to Florida crops and practices. Water is one of the most critical components of food safety on the farm and in post-harvest handling and processing. Water has the potential to transmit both chemical and biological hazards to fresh produce. It is used in every phase of operation: irrigation, transplant establishment, the application of pesticides and fertilizers, frost protection, product rinsing and washing, direct processing, facility cleaning, cooling operations, and personal hygiene for workers. The application of contaminated water at any of these points can introduce pathogens that could potentially reach the consumer.

Safety on the Farm Just To Be On The Safe Side....... After outbreaks of e-coli in September 2009 on five farms in Devon, Surrey, North Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire which left several children seriously ill, the Health Protection Agency carried out an investigation led by Professor George Griffin. The findings of this 250-page report were made public last week. We do not wish to alarm any visitors – old or new – but it is crucial that we all take responsibility for our own actions both at the farm and on returning home to ensure that everyone stays safe. In order to prevent an outbreak ever happening at Blaze Farm we have put a number of changes in place, one of which is to make our visitors more aware of the potential risks about them and we have put up further information boards around the farm to this effect. It is ultimately the parent/carer’s decision to allow children to have animal contact and the responsibility of this action should be understood. Below are a view points of relevance taken from the Griffin Reports findings and we recommend that all visitors take the time to read this information. For full details on the Griffin Report see: www.griffininvestigation.org.uk

One can never play too safe on the farm. Be more than sure to keep yourself, your family and those who both visit with your on your farmstead and admire your fields are or workers along with you to be ?farm safe? during the busy harvesting seasons. What rules, policies and procedures should be followed in order to maintain safety on the farm ? whether it is a large operation or a smaller family homestead? First of all take the time to tour your farmyard and identify and all possible electrical safety danger areas and even areas that could be of concern in regards to safety matters. The first and foremost rule always to be followed and adhered to is that machinery must be able to freely pass under all power lines both in the farmyard and adjacent work areas. Watch out that machinery can clear both these power lines and near field entrances and road ways with more than plenty of room to spare. You can never be too sure. If you are not 100 % fully satisfied with the clearance and safety then promptly plan for another alternate route. Ensure that these directions are specified and explained to all farm hands and workers.

Topic List Videos Training Other Languages ... How to Use NASD Electrical Safety on the Farm Diane Chamberlain, Eric M. Hallman Cornell Agricultural Safety and Health Program Over the years, electrically powered farm equipment has become an indispensable element of modern farming. With the widespread use of electricity on the farm, more emphasis needs to be placed on using electricity and electrical equipment safety. Nationally, approximately 30 to 40 people a year are electrocuted on farms. A better understanding of the principles, uses, and hazards associated with electricity could have prevented many of these deaths. Electric Shock To understand the hazards associated with electricity, it is important to know the basic principles of electricity and how shocks occur. Electricity's basic principles can be explained with the terms voltage, current (amperage), and resistance. Voltage is the force that initiates the flow of electric charge. The actual flow of electric charge is called current. The rate of flow is measured in amperes. Resistance is based on how much a material impedes the current and
