Canadian Agricultural Safety Week (CASW) 2020 runs from March 15-21.
Safe & Strong Farms: Grow an AgSafe Canada is the second year of a three-year campaign celebrating farm safety across Canada. The aim of the campaign is to empower farmers, farm families and farming communities to build (2019), grow (2020), and lead (2021) the agricultural industry in safety and sustainability.
“We recognize that this past year was a difficult one for many farmers,” says Marcel Hacault, executive director with the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA). “That’s why we’ve focused resources on supporting wellness, resilience and safety on the farm."
CASW 2020 also marks the fourth year of the AgSafe Ribbon campaign, which raises awareness about the importance of farm safety.
Canadian Agricultural Safety Week takes place every year during the third week of March.
In 2020, CASW sponsors include long-time corporate sponsor Farm Credit Canada, as well as CN.
