Farm Safety

According to the National Safety Council, agriculture is one of the most hazardous industries in the nation. Every year, thousands of farm workers are injured and hundreds more die in farming incidents. Iowa State University strives to make all of its farms as safe as possible. These farms are operated by university faculty, staff, and students who must adhere to any and all OSHA regulations and/or standards pertaining to work-related duties.
