The National Education Center for Agricultural Safety (NECAS) is dedicated to preventing illnesses, injuries, and deaths among farmers and ranchers, agricultural and horticultural workers, their families, and their employees. This year’s National Farm Safety and Health Week is happening September 17 – 23 and the theme is, “No one can take your place.”

The daily topics of focus include:

Monday, September 18 – Equipment and Rural Roadway Safety
Tuesday, September 19 – Health and Wellness
Wednesday, September 20 – Priority Populations
Thursday, September 21 – Confined Spaces
Friday, September 22 – Brain Health

NECAS’ concern for safety in rural areas goes beyond farms and ranches. The need for services spreads from citrus groves in the South to vineyards in the West. It covers cattle ranches in Wyoming, fisheries in Maine, and thousands of ventures in between.
