You’re invited to our ‘Safety Meat’, with a difference

We are partnering with Farm Source to bring communities together for a chat about how we can keep each other safe, farmer-to-farmer.

Sadly, there have been a few fatalities in the Waikato recently, so on 14 November Farm Source Otorohanga will be hosting a 'Safety Meat’ with a difference. 

Three speakers with farming backgrounds will share how certain experiences, some very personal, have impacted their lives and what they’ve learned. AgDrive, on farm training specialists, will be on hand with a couple of bikes to talk riding technique and handling. 

Bring your colleagues and join us for some good chats, useful tips and great food. RSVP to the store directly or email our team here and we’ll see you there. 

It’s time to put the brakes on vehicle-related harm

We’re making farm vehicle safety a priority.

Earlier this year, we put a call out for your two cents on vehicle-related harm on farm. We wanted to hear from those who know farm vehicles best – the people driving them.  

We asked about the close calls, your learnings, and what your views are on what needs to change. 

At Safer Farms, we believe we can make positive change as a community and an industry. One way is by learning from our past experiences.  

It’s a chance to ask: ‘what’s one thing you can change or do differently today?’

It’s time we all pull together, to Farm Without Harm.

Farm Without Harm seeks to curb the human cost in producing food and fibre by designing harm out of farming, and sharing knowledge and experience. Our work is underpinned by the Farm Without Harm strategy, the first whole-of-sector and whole systems approach to designing preventable harm out of New Zealand’s farming systems. 

Safety Alerts

Safety Alerts are learnings from real life incidents.

They are a great way to learn from incidents that have happened on other farms.
