Each year the Agricultural Safety and Health program highlights a safety topic important to the everyday lives of farm families. Join us to learn about the hazards of all-terrain vehicles, farm equipment, and training in use of personal protective equipment. An agricultural rescue demonstration will take place to help prepare first responders. Penn State Puller's may show their 1/4 scale tractor build. The Farm Safety Demonstration Area (SD) will also be used by commercial drone companies to demonstrate the safe use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
Ag Safety and Health Tent Area
At the Exhibit area, team members will be happy to answer farm safety and health questions. Offering free practical solutions to help increase the visibility of farm equipment on the roadways and children on the farm. Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblems for on equipment and high visibility shirts/vests available for children (while supplies last) are available. Learn about hay hole covers and see how to construct them for your barn to prevent falls.
