SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. (RFD NEWS) — From widespread power outages to iced-over roads, large portions of rural America remain impacted by this week’s winter weather. Many small communities continue to face unique barriers to assistance and recovery, underscoring the importance of planning ahead and keeping safety top of mind during extreme weather events.
Jessi Grote with the AgriSafe Network joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to share guidance for farmers, ranchers, and rural residents dealing with hazardous winter conditions.
In her interview with RFD NEWS, Grote discussed why slips, trips, and falls remain a major safety concern in agriculture, particularly during periods of ice, snow, and prolonged cold. She also outlined additional steps producers and rural families can take to stay safe during winter weather, as well as resources available through the AgriSafe Network to help reduce risk and promote on-farm safety.
