• Description:
  "The National Children's Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety strives to enhance the health and safety of all children exposed to hazards associated with agricultural work and rural environments." This issue includes articles about the following topics. 1) FARM-HAT undergoes mobile facelift - this is a simple method of providing first-hand information about hazards, a process for evaluating hazards, and recommendations on correcting hazards. 2) Changing Demographics: Reaching beginning farmers and ranchers - the average age of U.S. farmers and ranchers is nearing 60, and many of those who are taking their places lack agricultural backgrounds and come from previously underrepresented and unique social-cultural backgrounds. 3) AgInjuryNews.org news clippings database - there exists no systematic collection of farm related injuries or deaths in the U.S. As a result, newspaper clippings have long been used as a source of information on injuries. 4) Children's Center surveys insurers about safety. 5) Child ag safety webinars archived. 6) Welcome to the National Children's Center new employees.
