Farm Safety and Health is a Team Sport: Promoting worker health and safety in agriculture using a holistic, team-based approach

Agriculture is a dynamic and ever-changing field, and it is also one of the most hazardous professions. Producers, farm workers, and their families face higher risks of injury, illness, and death compared to other industries.

As agriculture evolves, new and emerging challenges continue to arise. We must support our essential agricultural workforce by effectively addressing these risks through holistic approaches, including research, education, and training.

Learn more from veterinarian and epidemiologist Jeff Bender, DVM, MS DACVPM at the University of
Minnesota at the next J.G. O'Donoghue Memorial Lecture hosted by the Faculty of ALES. Light refreshments will be provided.
