COLLEGE STATION, Texas (RFD-TV) — Agriculture ranks as one of the most hazardous occupations. With National Farm Safety and Health Week underway, we’re taking time to highlight some of the daily risks in the industry and how to keep yourself and your family protected.
Cindy Kovar with AgriSafe joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to talk about road safety and agriculture as we age. In her interview with RFD-TV News, Kovar explained that the average age of farmers is rising, and there are important factors to consider as we age.
Kovar also discussed the leading causes of death among farmers and the ag labor workforce, what contributes to traffic fatalities on rural roadways, and important safety measures for farmers to keep in mind.
