Agricultural Safety and Health

Each year the Agricultural Safety and Health team highlight a safety topic important to the everyday lives of farm families. For 2021, learn about the hazards and rollover risks of ATV's and UTV's at three safety demonstrations on Tuesday and Thursday. On Wednesday, grain bin rescue demonstration will be held to highlight types of rescue devices and training available to first responders for proper management of on-farm incidents involving grain storage. This will take place at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. In addition, the Farm Safety Demonstration Area (SD) will host Penn State faculty demonstrating safe use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).

In the Rural Health and Safety Tent Area on Demo Alley and W. 6th St. there will be free blood pressure readings, stroke assessments, eye protection and concussion information.
