Farm Bureaus across the nation are mobilizing for Agricultural Safety Awareness Program Week, which takes place March 1-7. U.S. Agricultural Safety and Health Centers will join Farm Bureau in promoting the week with its theme “20:20 Vision on Ag Safety.”

Farm Bureau and U.S. Ag Centers will focus on a different safety area each day of ASAP Week:

  • Monday, March 2 – Mental Health
  • Tuesday, March 3 – Transportation Safety
  • Wednesday, March 4 – Weather Disasters
  • Thursday, March 5 – Confined Spaces
  • Friday, March 6 – Farmer Wellness

During this week and throughout the year, Farm Bureau encourages farmers to make safety a priority on the farm.

The Agricultural Safety Awareness Program is a part of the Farm Bureau Health and Safety Network of professionals who share an interest in identifying and decreasing safety and health risks. For more information and resources, visit the ASAP webpage.
